20th Match, Group A: Sri Lanka v Australia

[aussies1st]

Why does the SL v Aus WC match always get interrupted by something. The last WC, then the 96 WC where we skipped the match.

Just read on CricInfo that the match has been abandoned. The rain mustn't be letting up for them to call it off before the cut off point

Don't know why there isn't a reserve day since this tournament is going on forever.

Was reading today, apparently the Sri Lankan board strongly advised the ICC that matches in Columbo should be day games only, as evening storms in Columbo happen 4/7 days there this time of year and rarely at all during the day, so a 9am start would have virtually ensured 100 overs.

The ICC's response was that it was bad for TV times. How is a 30 over match any better?

Morons.
