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!

04:06 (IST), Jul, 09

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.

03:30 (IST), Jul, 09

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.

...THE CHASE...

02:52 (IST), Jul, 09

Freedom just weren’t at their best with the ball. There were far too many boundary balls and also, the fielding wasn’t at its best. Most of their bowlers went the distance but Ferguson and Saurabh were excellent. They now face a stiff task with the bat. They do have a good batting line up with a few destructive players but they’ll be chasing what we believe is an above par score here. The Kings on the other hand, will believe they can defend this. A good second half awaits.

02:52 (IST), Jul, 09

That’s a fine effort with the bat by the Kings and they have scored the highest score this season so far. They have just one man to thank and that’s their skipper, Faf. He played an outstanding knock scoring a ton. The others played around him and a couple of them got off to starts but couldn’t convert it into something big. Still though, they’ll believe they have a really good score on the board.
