UPDATE - 10.30 am GMT - Uh, oh! The rain has descended from the clouds and well, it was always on the cards. The umpires and the players rush off the field and the covers come on. It is very dark and it has started to really pour in but lets hope that the rain passes soon. Stay tuned for further updates.
