I’ve been awake since 4. It was supposed to be pissing down all night and all I’ve seen is a little drizzle for 10 minutes.
I think we'll get an hour or so, at some point today. Tomorrow we should be getting at least half of the day. There's enough time to win it.
Yeah, me too. We all knew what the weather forecast is. I'd have declared just before lunch, tbh. I'm 40-45 miles away from OT and the heavens have just opened.
This is tomorrow at 4pm and it’s going to be clear for the rest of the night. It doesn’t even look that bad at 1pm. I reckon today and tomorrow we’ll get about 3-4 hours in total to bowl at them. We need to make it count when we do.
Stopped raining here in Liverpool at about half 10. It looks like it's now starting to dry up at Manchester.
Start of play at 2:45 providing there's no further rain. Hopefully Woody is right when he said they only need 6 balls to win this test
It's not due to rain again at Old Trafford until about 5 o'clock, so we should be able to have a decent go, and the damp conditions should suit England . . . . the Aussies will not be relishing this
Good to get out if we can. But the wet ball will be a fecker for the bowlers. Got a chance though, and it didn't look like it earlier.
