A cloudy afternoon in Leeds greets us for the start of this three match series, which will be England’s last preparation before they head to India to defend their World Cup crown. A much changed English side is on offer today, with most of the regulars rested to manage workloads. Joe Root is the only common name between this squad and the ones that take the flight to India, but nevertheless this is a good chance to check out the reserve strength of the world champions. For Ireland, any games against the best teams in the world is a good way to test their cricketing prowess. A fairly similar Irish squad to the one that played against India, let’s see how they get along in this series
The cloudy afternoon has turned into a rainy afternoon in Leeds. The toss is going to be delayed for this one...
12:39 Local Time, 11:39 GMT, 17:09 IST: Still raining out here, we have to keep waiting...
13:03 Local Time, 12:03 GMT, 17:33 IST: It is now pouring down at Leeds. We'll be here for a while before we get any cricket. The cut-off for a 20-over game is 5:32 PM Local time (9:32 IST). Plenty of time, nothing to worry as of now
Matthew: "Time for somebody to develop a fully fledged cricket video game, whereby the two batters control themselves, and the 11 fielders control themselves, and we can pass the time watching something more interesting than the covers and the clouds! "
12.12pm It's just manky out there, grey and spitting, but not too damp to prevent Will Jacks from speaking to Sky on the outfield, about the rarity of the 50-over format. "You have to remember the rules, I barely play - two games in the last five years, which is a little bit weird. It's like T20 cricket, but you've just got more time." Easy.
