You're truly kidding me.

I am not

Bad light lol. Thunderstorm is 20 mins away though with possible hailstones.

 

[eddiesmith]

And that’s stumps on day 1, a marvellous 45 overs bowled by the 5 man pace attack.

 

[SC_Power]

And now we see the issues with slow over rates. 45 overs to now is appalling.

 

[norway blue]

Bullshit. Mmmmm

 

[010203]

First weather related delay of this Sydney Test.

 

[fuic08]

Sydney is a shit hole

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Light.

Lol.

 

[imagifED]

England's big chance is actually 2029 rather than 2025 where we still had Starc, Head etc who could turn it on. They have fairly stable batting order. All should be there except Root and Stokes who could even make it. Bowlers like Atkinson and Tongue get more experience. Maybe even find a spinner. Whereas we are the opposite.

 

[Plugger35]

Don't tell me the umpires are talking about the light.

Now they are going off, this is pathetic.

 

[RookiePick]

Umpires invoke the mercy rule.

 

[Some Idiot]

Bad light at 3pm with no rain. Farcical

 

[Bedi]

And that’s stumps on day 1, a marvellous 45 overs bowled by the 5 man pace attack.

Could be

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

And that will be it for today.

Shambles of a test venue.

 

[icyflakes]

Bad light lol. Thunderstorm is 20 mins away though with possible hailstones.

Play will resume exactly 1 minute after the storms arrive

 

[peternorth]

The usual Sydney test weather

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Surely they must have got word that the rain is coming.

 

[CakeEater]

Westend CakeEater surely fallen off the Green wagon today. Shocking test cricketer atm.

Needs a long stint in FC to fix his game.

Im still a believer but needs to improve most definetly.

 

[GreekLunatic]

Turn the lights on

 

[Rob R]

Bad light at 3pm with no rain. Farcical

and the lights are on. Disgraceful decision. If players and umpires think they can't play in that, then doc their pay.

 

[peternorth]

With the pitch the way it is, would Lyon be playing if fit?

 

[Westend]

F**k me...test cricket is a jooke

get the F**k back on

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

Looking like the rain will hit soon, then come back a few minutes after the covers get lifted.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

That will be stumps you'd reckon

The rain is still coming

 

[Bedi]

Surely they must have got word that the rain is coming.

covers aren't on, so groundsman haven't
