Handing over
Damien McCartney
That's it from me today. I might go and play some backyard cricket. Because I'm in Sydney, where the sun is shining and a game of cricket would never be affected by rain.
Lachlan Harper will take you through the next part of the day, assuming of course some play happens.
I'll be back tomorrow for day five.

It's raining, and off they're going again.
This is what happened yesterday too, rolling showers just really mucking everything up.
We got through 17 balls before this latest delay.

Inspection at the top of the hour

The rain has stopped but there's plenty of standing water on the covers and the outfield is very wet.
The covers are coming off, and umpires will inspect the wicked and the surface at the top of the hour.
