Don’t mention the weather mate. It’s a very sensitive subject.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Very hard to feign interest in these games now. We absolutely need a match today and tomorrow and for both to be corkers to reignite this WC.

 

[Victor Ian]

The premier game of all world cups. The washouts will be forgotten if this game gets underway. If Pakistan can pull off another upset it will be huge.

 

[mr_mister]

If this washed out I heard the ICC are cancelling the event and trying again later in the year in Australia

 

[PikeyB]

Oooof not looking too clever.

 

[the big bambino]

Pity about the weather. Would like to see an upset after the Eng WI snooze fest. It would be good for the tournament.

 

[Raghav]

Read the weather is sunny atm, rain should stay away for the WC to relive

 

[smash84]

Its sunny in the morning but starts to get rainy at match time apparently. Looks like another washout on the cards. Will be a disaster if it is. I know people who are flying out to England for this, feel sorry for them.

 

[morgieb]

Yeah that forecast looks worrying. And this matchup is probably the one the ICC wanted the most. Would be disgraceful if it didn't happen.

 

[MW1304]

Oh it's Manchester. Write this one off.

 

[Raghav]

Does the ground have a good drainage system?

How would it be in any way "disgraceful"? Its rain FFS.

I'm saying that the rain is disgraceful.

 

[Adders]

Don't mean to nit pick I just don't think that's the right word.........plenty of other ways to describe the **** weather and it's effect on this tourny, but you can't call a rain event disgraceful.

 

[BSM]

Gonna be at least a bit of a game by the looks of it

It’s a disgrace that England aren’t docked a point for every washout to apologise for their terrible weather
