It's being played on 26th December, can't expect a Cricket Match on Xmas day.

[Bullet Drive]

There may be a chance of rain, not looking good!

[PakCrikNeedsFixin]

It's the only T20 not on the red button, hope it isnt rained out!

[Inswinger]

Please do not ask for or post links to online streams!

[NZPakistanFan]

I am 10 minutes drive from the ground, having lunch. Weather is fine. A bit of grey in the sky but very light grey. Quite warm, approx 25 degrees celcius. Local weather forecast says no rain today, just a few clouds and light winds. There is forecast for rain tomorrow though, so hoping winds don't pick up and bring rain here sooner.

Going by my own personal feeling, being a local living in Auckland, I'd say 'Game On'!

[PakCrikNeedsFixin]

Thanks Bhai for the good news. Now I can relax and look forward to watching Akhtar steaming in
