West Indies vs Sri Lanka, 3rd ODI at Gros Islet, , Apr 15 2008 - Ball by Ball Commentary

9.38 pm The game has been abandoned. West Indies have won the series 2-0. Pity, it had to end like this but that's that. Thanks for joining us. Good bye and good luck.

9:15 pm Raining again. The covers are back on. It's pouring down. Things are looking gloomy. Would it stop soon and will they have time to mop the ground dry? Tricky situation here. It's still raining.

8:57 pm: The umpires will inspect the conditions in a short while again.

8:48 pm The match referee walks out with Simon Taufel. There is still some concern over the wet outfield. So the drying process continues.

8.43 pm It's stopped raining a short while back. The umpires have been out there, checking the state of the outfield. No official word yet, on the start time. The umpires are working out the D/L targets. Once they finish that, they will start the game.

8:05 pm Rain suspends play. Cozier informs that the breeze is blowing pretty hard and it might just be a passing shower. No play for the moment, though. The wind is indeed pretty strong. Meanwhile, the rain gets heavier.

Drizzling again. The ground staff are getting ready with the covers

Ram from Canada: "Well it looks like West Indies finally have an opening batsman. The thing is that just a couple of years ago a guy by the name of Shiv used to open the ODIs with a guy named Chris. suddenly WI started experimenting and at the same time they shuffled Shiv up and down the batting order, guess they were not serious about his talent so lets hope that Chatters doesnt have the same experience as they try to revive Smith and others careers!""
