This rain doesn't look good for today - anyone know what their alternative plan is?

I would love to see a replay of Zille coming on. Unfortunately I wasn't able to catch the opening ceremony.

Anyone? Anywhere?

Games end in a draw and each side gets a point or something like that. There's no reserve days except for the final.

Anyway cricinfo says rain has stopped.

Punjab scored 104 in their alloted 12 overs.

Delhi on 24 after 1.5 overs.

Yusuf Adbulla was getting creamed by Sehwag before the rain intervened - 15 of his first 5 balls.

 

[AirWolf]

Delhi set a revised target of 54 in 6 overs got to 58 in 4.5 overs to win by 10 wickets. Sehwag got 38 of 16 deliveries

Delayed second match because of a problem with the lights. Even in some of the matches in the SA-Aus series there were problems with the lights. Not a very good impression for SA.

Its been a pretty bad start to the tournament as a whole really, bad weather after we got it due to our good weather, 10 mins to remove a dog and now light problems And the games havent been too entertaining

Ja, they had problems twice in the ODIs with the lights, i think the 1st time was at Newlands just after it was announced we got the IPL

Cricinfo's facebook status:

Cricinfo is not wondering whether the IPL season two has moved out of India. Dog break yesterday, floodlight problems today ... feels like India, all right.

can anyone else hear the sound whenever a bowler runs up? sounds like a hydraulics pump

Yup, sounds like an audio glitch.

There was a moving camera on a wire which was following overhead the bowler.
Gilchrist complained about it when he was batting.

I was there today, cheerleaders were fscking hawt.
