11:05pm The match has been abandoned as the rain persists. Do join us again tomorrow for the 2nd game of the TNPL 2021. Until then this is Binoy George along with Vairavan signing off.

10:04 pm It is still raining. There is patches of water on the ground, since the drying facilities are good at Chepauk, If and when the rain stops, it should just take 30 minutes to start the game, hoping for a start, stay tuned.

Rain has stopped play. It is pouring down and the covers are on in the middle.
