Get out when Ramdin gets out

by Gaurav Sethi

In the 1st ODI, day before, as in the 2nd one today, when Ramdin was dismissed the players left the field of play.

1st ODI Fall of wickets1-6 (Gayle, 2.5 ov), 2-131 (Sarwan, 30.1 ov), 3-152 (Simmons, 33.4 ov), 4-212 (Chanderpaul, 40.4 ov), 5-213 (Bravo, 41.1 ov), 6-242 (Pollard, 45.5 ov), 7-244 (Ramdin, 46.2 ov)

2nd ODI 12.55pm West Indies just losing their way here. And, as I write, a very blustery shower scurries across the ground and the covers are hurriedly dragged on

46.1 Collingwood to Ramdin, OUT, well that's a bit of a poor shot really. He stood with both feet pointing down the pitch and tried to scoop it very fine over the keeper's head, but could only spoon it straight to a short fine-leg.

1st ODI: Ramdin dismissed 46.2, 2nd ODI: Ramdin dismissed 46.1


And again
5.15pm But that's it. They're heading off. It's fairly hammering down. England are 15 runs behind Duckworth-Lewis. The cut-off time if now 6pm apparently, so...the game's not over yet.
46.2
Pollard to Strauss, FOUR, slashed through extra cover for four!
It's hammering down now
46.1
Pollard to Strauss, 2 runs, crashed through cover for two, bringing up his third one-day hundred
The covers are about to be dragged on. Oh blimey. Lights are on

What's with the 46th over in Guyana, with or without Ramdin, but always with rain

Neat observation NC..

Though the 1st ODI the 46th over brought lack of light rather than rain, both at the ground and on the paper Dyson was looking at!
