4th ODI NZ vs SA

[bayrep]

Anyone know what the story is ? Word from Cricinfo is that it is delayed due to wet conditions, that tells me squat on if it is raining or they are delayed while they dry the out field ?

 

[El Diablo]

Looked pretty wet on TV.

Just got home from the Brook crappy little bits of rain with Gale force wind.

 

[bayrep]

[southern warrior]

Its probably a good thing for the Black caps as SA were starting to take it to us, especially Rudolph.

Run rate still only 4.09 but it was starting to climb fast.
