The above situation is one of the main reasons why I cant get into Cricket that much. It just seems like such a farce that a match cant be played because of the weather/condition of the pitch - where is the sport in spending four days playing yourself into a position from where you can easily win on the fifth day only to have it taken away from you by a bit of drizzle? I know that Lancashire League is a one-day format so why not just play the match when conditions are better?
