By my understanding. 70 overs still possible as of now.

Bat 40 and make 240 to lead by 180, leaving us 28-30 overs to bowl them out... Bloody rain.

10.30 should be at least the start time of all test cricket, 10am if possible. Does anyone on here know why they start at 11am in England?

The one sure thing i know about the rain and todays play is that the multi trillion dollar industry that is Sportsbet has the draw at $1.04

Forget radars, news forecasts and weather predictors. If those odds keep dropping that's the sure thing.

Rumour out of Manchester is the Poms tears are not helping the conditions. Stick you BazBall up your ass ya Pommie Bastards! Does that first test still feel like a win now old chums??

Play usually starts at 10.30 in Australia doesn't it? It did in Perth, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney in the most recent summer.

Usually it starts at 10.00 in Brisbane due to the rain they often get in the evenings.

Never used to start before 11.00 anywhere else in Australia until the last 20 years or so.

I believe there was a time in England (back in Bradman's day, I think) where cricket there started at 11.30.

40ish overs still possible.

I am not forgetting that Joel Wilson is an umpire and he could deem play possible yet.

If today is washed out, Manchester joins Sydney with 25 days of test cricket lost completely.
