Simple wishes really

Here are my thoughts on the upcoming India-SL test series, which could produce some very, very good test cricket if things work out. On second thoughts, I'll let more talented people than me do it.
Rain, please go away/Leave me alone, come another day/My love (i.e., test cricket) is gone, this time to stay/Rain, please go away

And,

Baby take the rain away/Make it come again some other day/Let's pretend everything's OK/Baby take the rain away

Thats it really. Everything else will fall into place.

"Rain Bad news. Overnight heavy rain which carried on in the morning as well and it's still drizzling out there. It's monsoon season in Sri Lanka and the ground staff have come prepared. 90% of the ground is covered. They are regularly removing water from the middle, even with rain around, to stop the water from sweeping in through the covers like a tea bag. So at the moment it is just a drizzle and probably the ground staff will need 90 minutes to clear the covers. Having said that, chances of play starting before lunch looks bleak."

How about that??

PA: Sigh. I don't know what it is about India-SL encounters that literally forces the moisture out of the heavens.
