@Richard-Futter why does it take so long?! We've had a nice window in the weather, inspection took over half an hour, then a 45 minute wait before start of play. They know the rains coming back, just get them out there!
Don't ask me! I know in Sri Lanka they cover the whole ground and are usually back on in about ten minutes once it stops - does take an awful lot of trained ground staff though.

Can we get a run out please wicket anyway will do ha

Starting 2.50 - 40 mins time. Come on England!
-
Looks like they're making a start..... just waiting for official start time.
-
Come on play !!!
-
@Matt-Ayles faaaaaaaaarrrrr kick missed this one . Too much pain from golf earlier ha
-
Tied match Ban v Ind... didn't have any cover on it. Never mind, void trades. On we go!
Lets hope we can get a couple of hours in Manchester...
-
Looking at the radar it looks like there may be some dry spells this afternoon; whether they will last long enough for any play remains to be seen. But I wouldn't be surprised to see the draw drift slightly.

Market 1.7 all of a sudden
Morning Nathan. Yeah, amazing how much movement there is in markets even when there's absolutely nothing happening. I think we'll see a few ups and downs through the day, especially when the TV coverage starts around 10.30 UK time (ie in an hour's time).

@Richard-Futter yeah, problem is it's that thin rain that soaks things quickly. Weather can change on a dime around here though so you never know but it's not looking great at present!

Aussie luck kicking in ffs
Knew WI would fight better
Hoped for a 1.05 type lay ha
Maybe still will some point
Draw lay on cards thoThoughts on the WI test. I had a lay yesterday that is starting to look a poor decision.
I watched it last night, WI just blocked every ball. Will hopefully come out a little bit more today, never seen a team play for a draw on Day 2 before.
-
Reckon if the price hits 1.3 it's probably worth a smallish lay, but if not I'll be leaving it alone today.
-
@Stephen-Hancox taken a small red on my personal draw lay here weather up here is grim this morning. Hoping there may be some opportunities to trade on Sunday
-
According to The met office the weather forecast for Sunday looked ok this time yesterday. Then at close of play last night it looked a wash out. Right now it looks better on Sunday afternoon. Amazing how the outlook changes so much in a short space of time. So I'm thinking there's still hope late on Sunday. But no play today.
-
The prospect of any play at Old Trafford looks very slim indeed with banks of incessant rain apparently heading towards Manchester, so it wouldn't surprise me to see the draw price slide down to well under 1.5 during the course of the day.
Ultimately everything will hinge on whether England can pick up the remaining 6 wickets between the likely showers tomorrow. I wouldn't rule it out.
