15:03 Local Time, 19:03 GMT, 00:33 IST: Toss in less than 10 minutes from now as the rain has completely stopped and if there is no further rain, we will start at 15:30 Local.
14:22 Local Time, 18:22 GMT, 23:52 IST: The rains are still persistent.
13:45 Local Time, 17:45 GMT, 23:15 IST: Uh oh! The rain is back. The covers back in place.
Pitch report: Since 2021, the spinners have been prospering. There isn't any grass on the wicket. Looks dry. The moisture around can be a concern. Spin will be a factor. The outfield will be a little slow given the rain that has been around. The average score in the first innings in the last few games has been 199.
The sun is out. Towards the east, the clouds are building up. The outfield has some water clogged in it.
