2 weeks ago there was 30mm of rain that fell in the early hours of friday morning.
this week we got 10mm, which fell in two halves, being lunchtime thursday and then roughly 8pm thursday evening.
Not sure I agree that this week is worse than 2 weeks ago.
How many runs are you guys chasing this week? haha
Hahaha..... not chasing runs I can promise that. 10mL is being very light in a lot of areas quite a few had substantially more yesterday let alone overnight as well. i personally think day 2 of a game should very rarely be called off by the association.
Agreed .... what we had two weeks ago was much worse. That said, I'm sure some clubs won't be able to get a wicket up, but no need to call off all matches with uncovered pitches.
