Kiwi's going to fire a shot?

 

[NYRB]

Weather doesn’t look too good for play. Draw a factor in 1st test.

 

[Plugger35]

I'm looking forward to watching this blockbuster series but unfortunately the weather forecast doesn't look good for the first test.

Heavy rain forecast for the first two days and more rain scheduled for the other days, at least the drainage at that ground is good.

 

[Plugger35]

Still drizzling in Bangalore according to cricinfo but the forecast is better for the afternoon so hopefully they get some play today.

 

[Cleavy]

so they seeded the clouds to avoid a devastating loss to NZ? got it.

 

[Plugger35]

A good first day so far for NZ, we are still even with India.

 

[Plugger35]

The rain returning and play has been called off for the day.

A good first day for NZ we're still on level terms with India.
