Nevermind

The drizzle is back and the covers are back in place.

Not sure we will get anymore cricket today.

Movement

The covers are being stripped back as the rain leaves but we still have to wait for the surface to dry and the clouds are still very dark.

Covers firm

The covers are firmly in place this time and it looks like it will be a longer delay.

Short lived

Rain is back and Mitchell Starc is furious at the top of his mark.

He wanted a crack at Rohit.

Pant’s down

Cummins has his first!

The dangerous Pant tries to defend a ball going across him and gets a faint edge through to Carey.

India are in desperate trouble and rain may not be able to save them at this rate.

IND 4-44 trailing by 401

Back underway!

The players are in the middle and KL Ruhul returns to the crease with a perfect drive to the cover boundary.

IND 3-43 trailing by 402

If it makes you feel better...

England are getting pummelled my New Zealand in their third Test.

Kane Williamson struck 156 with the Kiwis now leading by 537 runs in the second innings with two more days to play.

Marsh magic

While we wait for the rain to clear again, it can’t hurt to rewatch Marsh’s catch and compare it to his effort from 2016 against South Africa.
