UPDATE - We have a restart time and it is 11.45 am GMT. The buffer time is gone so now we will have a 47-overs-per-side game. 

UPDATE - 11.24 am GMT - The rain has stopped and the covers are coming off too. It should not be long for us to get started again barring any further rain. However, if we look at the forecast, it will be going to be a stop-start kind of a game.

Uh..oh! It has started to rain again out of nowhere in Kandy and the covers come on. A few umbrellas go up in the crowd and out goes the players. The sky does not look that dark and there is a lot of wind going around which means that it can be just another passing shower. The waiting game begins...
