5th Test: South Africa v England at Centurion, 21-25 Jan 2005

Ball-by-Ball Commentary

       Covers are still on, umpires walking around the outfield looking
        10:00 local
       All night rain and a morning drizzle still has the covers on the
        pitch and runups
       The umpires have just done a walk around but the drizzle is still
        causing frustration
       It is still very overcast and any thoughts of play will have to be
        shelved for another hour
       The covers have been partially removed to reveal a rather green
        looking pitch
       but as we speak the rain starts again and ground crew scurry to get
        the covers back on
       By the looks of the weather this will continue for most of the
        morning
       We will keep you informed ever 30 minutes
       next update at 11:00 local (09:00 GMT)
       The covers are being removed again, and yes we were not mistaken
        last time round, that pitch is green
       a couple of the players are out there having a look, with the
        bowlers showing the biggest smiles
       Interesting toss will follow when the umpires decide on play
       Both teams now out in the middle, the South Africans warming up on
        our right, and England on the left
       Official news is that provided it does not rain again play will get
        underway at 12:00 (10:00 GMT)
       An early lunch will be taken to make up for the time lost
       The weather out towards Johannesburg however still looks very
        gloomy
       A change in reported lunch time, Lunch will be taken at the normal
        time of 12:30 with a longer 2nd session
       A minimum of 85 overs to be bowled
       Rain still falling at 11:50 (09:50 GMT)
       The only news is that Andre Nel and Andrew Hall will play in the
        place of Dale Steyn and Boeta Dippenaar
       The England team has yet to be announced
       Lunch is to be taken now, and hopefully the rain will stop, but I
        doubt it
       As frustrating as it is for you, so is it for us at the ground
       Just when it looks like the clouds are lifting a follow-up bank of
        low cloud comes rolling in
       The ground staff are at the moment mopping up excess water on top
        of the covers
       We will be very lucky to see any cricket here today
       At the moment the rain has once again lifted and an attempt is
        being made to remove the covers
       The umpires have been out to inspect, but no news from them as yet
       Official news from the umpires is that we are looking at a 15:00
        start
       That is if the rain does not get back before that
       15:00 (13:00) We will advise if there is any chance of play
       Play will resume 30 minutes earlier tomorrow at 10:00 local (08:00
        GMT)
