Match State: Delay - Rain stopped play - NZT 1.57
Well the rain's back on and the umpires have decided to lead the players off for the meanwhile
4.40pm Well it really is tipping it down out there now and play really doesn't look likely in the near future. Most of the supporters have given up and gone home now to shelter from the rain. We will let you know of any change in the situation but not looking good just now.
5.30pm Well I'm afriad that's it for today play has been abandoned. After the West Indies reached 129 for 5 after 36 overs hit had been a real stop-start affair and the weather gods didn't look down kindly on us here at Queenstown. Please join me for the 2nd ODI where both sides will be eager to get out on the pitch at 2.00pm on the 3rd of January, in Christchurch. Hope to see you then but for now it's good night.
