If this decision was left to the captains, it's likely both would say they'd rather come back tomorrow to try and get in a full game. The clock is ticking but the rain seems to have abated. No one's leaving yet.— Shashank Kishore (@captainshanky) May 28, 2023
UPDATE: Umpires say they were quite hopeful of a game tonight around 9 pm. They will try to push as far as possible. If by around 11 pm rain doesn’t stop, we will have to come back tomorrow, Nitin Menon adds.
Looks like we...
