Okay, so we don't have a pleasing news for Indian fans. The match has been officially called off as rain has played spoilsport. This has been a day like that in Hamilton. A delay in the toss and then stoppage after 4.5 overs. When it resumed, it was set to be a 29-over affair but the rain gods had other plans. The match stopped 12.5 overs again and only for not to get resume. India would have wanted to play this as they were going pretty well. After Dhawan's departure, Gill and Suryakumar Yadav were looking pretty strong. But the Men in Blue will want the weather to stay good in the final ODI in Christchurch as they look to level the series. See you then. Ta, ta.
The bigger covers have come out and have been laid out. Fingers crossed for LIVE action to resume.
