The game is unlikely to be played today as well

Never a good sign when ground staff are digging in the outfield

Seems over-dramatic. Wet happens. Some places don't have great drainage
9:15 AM
WTC playing conditions: "An abandoned match will be treated as a draw. But if the match is abandoned because of an unfit pitch or outfield, the home team will be penalised, and points for a win will be awarded to the visiting side."
That might explain why AFG are upset

@PaulWhite i agree. The ground staff worked hard too. But sometimes it just doesn't add up.
> New Zealand players were out there having a practice session but alas the ground could not be ready for the actual game. The groundstaff worked hard; replaced the grass patches, used fans to dry the surface and the super soppers have been going around since yesterday.
> ... well, sometimes it's not economically feasible to cover the entire ground. Also, a lot of manpower is required which some venues don't have.
@PaulWhite ahh. I see.
