Chinnaswamy Stadium here on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;The play has been officially called off. Another day lost to rain. If weather permits, tomorrow the play will start at 9:15 A.M. #IndvsSA,&quot; Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) wrote on Twitter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>There was no sign of rain till 1.40 p.m as the umpires announced the delayed start because of a wet outfield by inspecting the ground twice at 11.30 a.m. and 1 p.m. After the second inspection, they took the decision that the game can be resumed at 2 p.m.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>But a light drizzle forced the ground to be covered, and the umpires to call off play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Play was also called off on Sunday and Monday and with Tuesday too washed away, as many as nine sessions have been wasted because of rain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>India, at 80 for no loss, were trailing South Africa by 134 runs at the end of Day One with openers Murali Vijay and Shikhar Dhawan batting on 28 and 45 respectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Earlier, India bowled out South Africa for 214 runs in the first innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>(IANS)<\/p>\r\n",
