Suspect the day will be officially called soon, sad times.

Sad way for a fantastic ashes to end, if only there was a reserve day.

The rain band isn’t as far south as expected it’s meant to pivot slightly south later today but it also being dragged away NE, as usual with LP tracks across the UK. Met office weather app/BBC currently say heavy rain but it’s been dry at the ground for the last hour or so according to reports...

Accuweather says clear till about 1pm now…. It’s been the top dog in forecasts this weekend so 🤞 at the moment the band of rain seems to be just skirting Manchester atm https://www.accuweather.com/en/gb/old-trafford/m16-0/minute-weather-forecast/53686_poi

Accuweather minutecast says near to no rain until 6pm now, looking very positive 🤞

Accuweather minutecast which I normally find extremely accurate says no more significant rain till circa 4pm now, expected a complete wash out today but looks like there will definitely be some overs bowled, even after 5pm it doesn’t look like consistent downpours

Looks bad but that’s usual practice with cricket covers and will be super soakered up

Few hours break in the rain now, with further heavy rain this evening, if we could even get 10 overs in these conditions that would be a bonus in day that looked a right off. That being said, I’m guessing it will start raining just as the ground staff get the ground dry, like usually happens in...

Old Trafford drains really badly from memory doesn’t it? I’m sure I remember there being pools and pools of water on it in one summer recently Tomorrow there will definitely be dry spells, I’ve used accuweather for years + their ‘minutecast’ and always found them very reliable, much more so...

Bounced up into his hands, he knew, as a fielder you know when it bounces slightly before you feel it. Crawley knew as well.

Not these two again….

Got to feel for Warner :lolol: Not

The relentless giving Anderson the new ball feels quite frustrating now, should be Woakes based on form.

We should be putting them in, probably the toughest batting conditions going. Dark, on off rain, gusty wind on a wicket that’s starting to misbehave

Should have declared, that’s another 15 mins at least taken out of a rain effected result…

BBC weather is nearly always absolute rubbish when it comes to mixed conditions IMO, it says 69% chance of thunderstorms now… Useless.

BBC forecast is a bit rubbish, the Sunday rain will be more scattered showers than a significant band of consistent rain like Saturday. I reckon there will be plenty of play today.

Saturday will be a wash out but I think we will get a fair amount of play today and Sunday, conditions will be ripe for bowling as well, get another 100 quickly this morning then declare, we have to be ultra aggressive to force a result.

Unplayable delivery to Root, basically rolled along the floor… wtf
