With significant rain arriving over Melbourne this morning, all Saturday matches are put back to 1.30pm (70 overs) at earliest, and the following process will apply:
No pitch assessments at 8.30am
Captains (home & away) should SMS 0410-938191 by 9am with their team, grade, ground and preference whether to "abandon now on forecast" or "assess pitch and forecast at 10.15am"
At 9.30, this website will list games that are abandoned already by agreement.
Captains electing to assess at 10.15am will have three options to SMS by 10.45am (ie 70ov at 1.30pm, or T20 at 3.15pm or Abandon). Decisions for those matches will be on this website at 11.15am.
