Please do join us for the second match of the series tomorrow. Till then good night from all of us here
The rain started at 5.00 PM local time and they lost 20-minutes because of the rain. When the rain arrived they were playing for a 14-over match. Logically, it would've gone further than 5.18 PM if there wasn't any rain. What's comical is the fact that sun is shining down on the ground. Any which way you look at it, it's cricket shooting itself in the foot
5.20 PM local time: The match has been called off. The cut-off time for a 5-over match was supposed to be 5.18 PM
5.10 PM local time: The covers are being peeled off as the rain has stopped
Dada : "Awake at 3am to watch this dismal performance. When will we get something worthy to watch as a Bangladesh fan."
5.00 PM local time: It has started to rain and that signals the end of Bangladesh innings. We will get back to you with the target for West Indies. The rain seems to be stronger than what it was the previous time. If there are no overs lost, West Indies will need 108-runs for a win
