What was supposed to be the tournament opener was rescheduled to a fresh date and even that has been rained out. Will the weather Gods be kind enough over the next few hours so that we witness the other two games in store though? Do switch tabs to follow our coverage of those matches as we keep you posted with crossed fingers and hope that we get to see some cricket. For now though, this is the duo of Maanas Upadhyay and Sooryanarayanan Sesha taking your leave and thanking you for being a patient audience. See you around soon - buh-bye for now!
10:50 local time, 8:20 IST: And that's that - the match has been abandoned. Inevitable with all that rain around and it's safe to say that the second match will witness a delayed start too. Of course, we hope to see some action over there but yet another contest ending as a damp squib is quite disappointing and frustrating.
10:37 AM local time, 8:07 PM IST: Fresh news, but not a good one - the rain has intensified. I guess this is it for this game...
10:25 AM local time, 7:55 PM IST: Uh oh...yup, it's raining again! The covers are back on and it's safe to say we're in for another delay. Especially because it's pouring heavily now.
10:02 AM local time, 7:32 PM IST: Update on the toss - it will be held at 10:30 AM local time with the first ball to be bowled at 11 AM local time. The overs have been reduced too - five overs per side!
9:30 AM local time, 7 PM IST: Great news - the covers are being peeled off. The sun is shining bright so hopefully we aren't far away from the toss!
The toss has been delayed due to a wet outfield. Stay tuned for updates!
Hello and welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of the inaugural edition of the US Masters T10 League, 2023. We are back with a rescheduled game as it will be curtain-raiser played again, with Atlanta Riders locking horns with the Texas Chargers at Lauderhill.
Atlanta Riders is a power-packed side, boasting of batters like Lendl Simmons, skipper Robin Uthappa and Dwayne Smith. They have a host of talented bowlers who will be looking to make a mark like S Sreesanth, lanky pacer Mohammad Irfan and Kamrul Islam.
All-in-all, the Atlanta side looks pretty well-rounded and will be looking to pocket a win in their opening encounter itself. They haven't gotten a single minute of game time and will be hoping to finally play today.
Texas Chargers, on the other hand, managed to play one game against California Knights, a match they ended up losing by a huge margin of 48 runs. They, too, are a side that boasts of some big names when it comes to the batters and wicket-keepers they possess, having Upul Tharanga, Ben Dunk and Phil Mustard.
They have invested in Sri Lankan all-rounders having Isuru Udana, Thisara Perera and Jeevan Mendis but injuries have plagued many of them. Their bowling comprises of the likes of Pragyan Ojha and Fidel Edwards. They will be looking to make amends and get their first win on the board.
We are in for an exciting contest today, should the Rain Gods allow it. Sit back, relax and enjoy as I, Maanas Upadhyay, alongside my dear friend Sooryanarayanan Sesha, take you through all that unfolds over the course of this contest! Stay tuned for the Toss Update and Team Sheets!
