India vs New Zealand - World Test Championship Final 2021 - LIVE - Page 2

Let us hope for a glimpse of the ball and bat once for today!!

Thanks for the tag Madhu.

I wasn't paying attention to this WTC.

I may not be able to watch it. Will follow the news.

Both teams are even stevens for me. I like both teams. I am happy they both reached finals. If they are playing with any other team, I would have rooted for these two teams only.

Whoever wins the final is fine with me.

Cheers......

1.30pm The covers remain on in Southampton, but a Super Sopper is out and about. There's been no rain for around half an hour now.

Rain is spoiling the whole mood. Does that mean less number of overs? And what if rain spoils the first day do they have extra day in hand?

As per the ICC release, the playing conditions confirm that a draw or a tie will see both teams crowned as joint winners as well as the allocation of a Reserve Day to make up for any lost time during the regular days of the Final -- scheduled to be played from June 18 to 22, with June 23 set aside as the Reserve Day.

The Reserve Day has been scheduled to ensure five full days of play, and it will only be used if lost playing time cannot be recovered through the normal provisions of making up lost time each day.

Vijay, there is a provision, a possibility to extend 1 day if we lose today.

Thank you for clarifying, yes that is what cricinfo told us too.

As per cricinfo

"Naga tells me the umpires just went onto the field for an inspection. There will be another inspection at 3pm."
