    Cooke and Crane won’t be selected for the final, apparently Somerset taking a somewhat similar approach in terms of call-ups. Let’s see.

    Great memories of Trent Bridge last time out but unable to travel up this time, looks like it could be a case of hoping for enough (40?) overs taking place to make a game of it over the two days going by current forecasts.
    Looks like you’re right about the weather, a delayed start and a forecast of thundery showers through today. There seems little chance of the game being completed if it goes into a second day because the forecast for tomorrow is for heavy rain all day.

            Oŕ an indoor game or a bowl out. Must be some way of doing it.

            So as 2 days scheduled if say they can start at 4.30pm they'll do the first 20 overs of the 50 over game tonight and try and do the other 80 overs tomorrow? Seems a bit unfair on all those who have travelled today?

              "UPDATE: The players have agreed in principle to a 20-over a side game if rain stops.

              If it continues to rain until 2:33pm, play will be called off for the day. Tomorrow will serve as a reserve day should the rain stop."

                Now abandoned for the day. They'll try again tomorrow.

                It's almost like they should have played the final shortly after the semi finals in the middle of August.

                  I understand moans about leaving it late in the year but to be fair people need time to arrange trips and August weather is certainly no better than September usually. A few days ago it was glorious. What I find difficult to understand is there is not one word in the rules about the final being rain affected.

                    OK but why is it for the players to agree?

                      Why don’t the players agree to wait until Tuesday when it’s fine?

                        I don't know whether we are talking about the same thing but I skim read the entire 32 page doc on the ECB website yesterday and came to the same conclusion. Yes I am a sad bastard.

                            I feel for you mate. What a waste of a day. I decided not to go as I chose not to buy tickets unless the forecast was decent.
                            No chance of play tomorrow.
                            Is the trophy shared?

                              Yes, trophy shared.

                              My lift decided last night not to travel. A wise decision.

                              I'd take an early train tomorrow but forecast makes that thoroughly futile.

                                Thanks for confirming. Such a shame. Yep there would no point going tomorrow.
