Bowling will be tough if we get a match in, but GT win if it's rained off, because they finished higher on the table.

How many overs do they have to get in to make it a game? Reduced power play? DL?

Remember, we still got 2 hours before we start losing overs, according to the host broadcasters. If the live pictures are anything to go by, it would take at least 20-30 minutes for the mop-up job once it stops raining. Fingers crossed for a positive update...

43/0

With field restrictions?

With field restrictions?

Good question. I have no idea.

 

[Maurice Kitching]

Pitch inspection. WTH. If you can stand there without an umbrella, you can play cricket. Get on there!

 

[Speedster]

And so we enter day 3 of a T20 game.

15-over game.

Get your helmets on folks !!

And the revised target for CSK is 171 in 15 overs.

 

[Dan C]

With field restrictions?

4 overs of powerplay and a maximum of 3 overs per bowler. (15 overs)

 

[SlowInternet]

I'm sure that many spectators will not be at work in the morning.

Great start for CSK

 

[Dan C]

Great start for CSK

Much easier to chase 171 of 15 than over 200 off 20.

T20 is just not really cricket, more just a spectator sport. But I enjoy it.

Yip. Not test cricket, but great for the spectators.

 

[Creag]

Breakthrough!

 

[Creag]

Pressure.

 

[Creag]

CSK can still do this. Just need to keep their head(s).

 

[Creag]

GT have broken momentum and will feel this is their best chance to reign in the run rate.

 

[Creag]

GT need to get Rahane.
