When there is a match, there comes Rain too

When ever there is a match played at the our garden city rain to gets there without getting tickets and it just spoils the match. That's what happened in the past and yesterday was no special. Indian's were on a roll as they won the previous three ODI's against the England who came India after their successful home series against South Africa where they beat them 4-0 under their newly appointed captain Kevin Pieterson. The England team just managed to bite dust and nothing else after the three matches and Indian fans expected India to seal the series here in the Bengaluru city. Chinnaswamy stadium was Jam packed and The same thing happened!? This time it just spoiled half the match we should say... the match was reduced to 22 overs per side and the rain was playing for the Indians... England was again in the mess as the revised D/L target was 198 in 22 overs and they failed to reach that. I was there in Shivaji nagar shopping with my sister and it was raining ... The thing I thought in my mind first after seeing the rain was... "There is a match today isn't it???"... when I was traveling back home heard lot of people say the same thing... hope the next match here will be played to the full Fifty Overs. I thought of this whenever there is a match kept in Chennai or Bengaluru the rain comes even before the match starts. The Indian government should think of building cricket stadiums in Ramanathapuram and other few parts of Tamil Nadu where there is little rain and host matches there atleast that way those places will get rain isn't it??
