CWC 19: Semi -Final - India V New Zealand

reserve day has been scheduled, should this be rained off today ...albeit isnt expected that the reserve day will be needed
 
seems the rain in the north west may be hanging around for another hour or so

I believe if play commences by /at 4pm no overs will be lost?
 
I was wrong about this rain being NZs only hope. If they don't finish tonight, they restart tomorrow at the point where the game was called off today:

"If no more play is possible today, they would restart tomorrow from the point we left off at (NZ 211-5 off 46.1 overs) and play the full 50 overs per side. " (BBC website)
 
If only we'd contrived to play NZ - by far the least in-form of the semi-final teams.

It's not so much that we should have contrived to play New Zealand. If we'd just won the games we should have against Pakistan and Sri Lanka, then we'd have topped the group and would have been playing them! Playing them is India's reward for being the most consistent team in the round robin...….

Anyways, probably best that they come back and finish the full game tomorrow rather than try and play some truncated 20 over DL game tonight. Although the weather forecast isn't completely clear then either.

If it does get rained off again, then India go through courtesy of the aforementioned group winning.
 
Part 2 of the ODI semi Final ...being played over 2 days ...hopefully starts at 10.30am


India must be favourites to go through , but in this CWC anything can happen
 
Kohli's face looked slappable when he was walking off. What an arrogant little man he is.
