So after a lot of speculations about the starting time of the game, the match has finally begun.
So amidst the overcast conditions, the toss is underway. Thankfully we had the toss on the time.
The overnight showers in London have left the outfield wet. Currently, the groundsmen are trying their level best to start the game on time.
Huge amount of overnight rain @HomeOfCricket.
BUT it’s currently dry & lots of work being done to try & get things ready for a start on time.
Might be some more drizzle around, but hopefully the worst of the rain has gone. #ENGvAUS coverage starts 9.30#BBCCricket #CWC19 pic.twitter.com/9480MpG1vT— Adam Mountford (@tmsproducer) June 25, 2019
The weather in London is expected to be cloudy for the entire day. The wet-outfield will be a big headache for the ground staff. The game can also be interrupted due to the thunderstorms later in the day.
So the news from the centre is that the match could be delayed due to wet outfield due to an overnight downpour.
Hi and welcome to live weather of England vs Australia. Stay tuned as we bring you the hour by hour weather report.
England and Australia will lock horns today in the 32nd game of the CWC 2019 at the Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. The teams have a lot at stake as they battle it out in the game later today. Hosts had a great start in the CWC 2019 but suddenly are bogged down with several injuries which had resulted in them into a loss against Sri Lanka in their last game by 20 runs. On the other hand, we have Australia and have only lost one game so far in the tournament. The team would wish to keep their momentum. Ahead of the game, let’s have a look at the weather report of the Lord’s cricket ground. England vs Australia Cricket Score 32th ODI Match.
The game could witness a delayed start with overnight showers in London. The wet outfield surely would be a cause of the delayed start. Now by afternoon, there are chances of thunderstorms and the game could be interrupted for a while once at 12.00 PM UK time and then at 2.00 PM. The humidity levels will be around 60-70 per cent and the weather will be cloudy post the delays.
