It was only a passing shower and after a slight delay the players are back in the field and Mitchell Marsh continued on his merry ways as he belted Hazlewood for a six down the ground to get his team off to a solid start.

LSG 18/0 (2)
Not some great news from the stadium as the play is halted due to rain. Though it looks like a passing shower but it strong enough to stop play and force the players and umpires head back to the dug out.
LSG 12/0 (1.3)
LSG openers - Mitchell Marsh and Arshin Kulkarni get their team off to a cautious start with five runs from the first over of Bhuvneshwar Kumar. There is moisture in the air resulting in the ball moving in the air which makes it an even contest between bat and ball at the start.
