Washington Freedom vs Texas Super Kings Match Commentary: Major League Cricket, 2024

4.30am  The rain has gotten heavier and the match has been CALLED OFF. So, once again Washington Freedom are forced to play against the rain gods. Their last match got them two points but would have to settle with just a point here. It was turning out to be an entertaining chase with Smith and Head up for the challenge but the rain gods had the last say. Freedom will feel a little hard done by as they were in a great position. The Kings on the other hand, won’t really mind the points being shared in this game. Action from this tournament continues on Tuesday. It is the Knight Riders taking on the Orcas. That game begins at 0600 IST (0030 GMT). Till then, goodbye and take care!

4.06am  Update - It was pouring down and we have around an hour before the game can be called off! The problem is, the ground has taken a lot of beating. The good thing is, there's a lot of blue skies around but it is still drizzling. We need that to stop. Fingers crossed at the moment.

3.30am  Update - It has started to rain suddenly and the players are walking off. Looks like a passing shower and we should be back shortly. The big covers have been placed now and we are in for a long delay.
