All the covers have gone off except the one on the pitch as the super soppers work around the outfield.

The Indian team has arrived at the ground and captain Virat Kohli has made his way to the indoor facilities at the NCA after a brief chat with the umpires.

Former South Africa player Kepler Wessels believes it will be difficult to get things underway without any sunshine as the outfield has become too soggy because of the incessant rain for the last two days. He says it will be too risky for the fielding side to run around on such a wet ground.

As of now, it is overcast and the light is not very good, so the wait looks to continue a bit longer. Stay tuned!
