Game called off on Sunday already, the outfield isn't dry and the wicket hasn't been prepared

"The ground has been so wet that we have unable to undertake any preparation work on the pitch at all. Most of the outfield was cut for the first time today, the rest was too wet to cut. The ground first needs to dry out and then we can start work. The groundsman expects to go to the ground on Thursday and if the roller is working we need a number of persons to take turns rolling the square"
I was looking forward to nicking one to slip for as duck and dropping a few catches

They are probably struggling to get a team out

Things you'll find in Village cricke:t
1. The fat guy in the slips you know you can nick it to and you'll get 4 runs
2. The 65yr old club pensioner you have to pick because he does loads for the club.
3. The new guy to cricket wearing black socks and Astroturf boots who you call up to make the numbers running energetically in the outfield
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Number 3 will be me except for the energetic running. Played at school but nothing since so basically noob. Will expect to bat at 3 or 4 and have a bowl too.

Nice comment by flashyfibble and greatteamswinit4times.
Just went to watch my local team this weekend, my god standards have slipped. saw more dropped catches than runs
Game was cancelled at the weekend so went to watch my local team play, we have them in a few weeks time
Highly doubt our game will be on tomorrow, hasn't stopped raining all day, and forecast is for rain most of the day tomorrow as well.
FINALLY GOT A GAME SUNDAY
