2nd Test: Start Of Day Five Play Delayed Due To Heavy Rain At Edgbaston
The United Kingdom Met Office: The start of day five play in the second Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test between India and England has been delayed due to rain at Edgbaston on Sunday. India need seven wickets on the final day of the match to level the five-match series 1-1.
The United Kingdom Met Office, national meteorological service, had predicted showers to come on Sunday and covers were very much on the pitch and playing square when broadcast visuals came on air. After some time, the rain had stopped, covers came off and the sun shone for a bit before heading back behind some dark clouds.
But around 3 pm India time, it started to rain cats and dogs at the venue, with the outfield resembling a swimming pool and water puddles being formed near the covers. With the met department saying the forecast is better later on and rain will go away, it remains to be seen if India will get enough time to pick remaining seven wickets and register their first-ever Test victory in Birmingham.
