Play at Lord's was abandoned for the day shortly after 17:00 BST on Saturday The decision to abandon play an hour before scheduled at the end of the third day of England's second Test against Pakistan was called "a joke" by Nasser Hussain.
周六英国夏令时 17:00 后不久,Lord’s 的比赛被取消 在英格兰对阵巴基斯坦的第二场测试赛第三天结束时,纳赛尔·侯赛因称英格兰队比原计划提前一小时放弃比赛的决定是“一个笑话”。
On a Saturday badly affected by persistent showers at Lord's, players left the field at 17:08 BST.
星期六,洛德球场受到持续阵雨的严重影响,球员们于英国夏令时 17:08 离开球场。
At that point, prospects of conditions improving sufficiently for play to resume seemed remote.
那时,情况改善到足以恢复比赛的前景似乎很遥远。
However, rain cleared and the sky brightened. The groundstaff partially removed the covers while officials deliberated.
然而,雨停了,天空放晴了。 当官员们审议时,地勤人员部分拆除了遮盖物。
At 18:30, with up to an hour of playing time remaining and with the weather the best it had been all day, umpires Paul Reiffel and Allahuddien Parker abandoned proceedings. The decision was greeted with booing by some of the sparse crowd that remained inside the ground.
18:30,比赛时间只剩下一个小时,而且天气是一整天以来最好的,裁判保罗·雷菲尔和阿拉胡丁·帕克放弃了比赛。 这一决定遭到了一些留在场内的稀疏人群的嘘声。
"That's a joke, honestly a joke," former England captain Hussain said on Sky Sports.
“这是一个笑话,老实说是一个笑话,”前英格兰队队长侯赛因在天空体育上说道。
"I earlier said how good the umpires have been.
“我早些时候说过裁判们有多出色。
These fans have waited all afternoon for it to stop raining. It's now bright. There's blue sky in the distance. That is an unbelievable decision, it really is. "In about five minutes' time it's going to be sunny here."
这些粉丝们等了整个下午都等雨停了。 现在天亮了。 远处有蓝天。 这是一个令人难以置信的决定,确实如此。 “大约五分钟后,这里就会放晴了。”
The weather stayed dry and the light remained good up to 19:30, the time at which play would have been scheduled to close.
直到 19 点 30 分(比赛原定结束时间),天气仍然干燥,光线依然良好。
The morning session had been washed out and only 24.5 overs of play were possible as the players dodged the showers, meaning spectators will receive a 50% refund on the price of their ticket.
上午的比赛已经被淘汰,由于球员们躲避阵雨,比赛只能进行 24.5 轮,这意味着观众将获得门票价格 50% 的退款。
If 30 overs had been completed, spectators would not have been entitled to any money back.
如果 30 轮比赛结束,观众将无权获得任何退款。
Still, the abandonment caused some fans to express their displeasure with messages to the BBC's live coverage of the Test.
尽管如此,这次放弃还是引起了一些粉丝对 BBC 测试现场报道的消息表达了不满。
"Sat in the Edrich Stand," wrote Joe at Lord's.
“坐在埃德里奇看台上,”乔在洛德教堂写道。
"It hasn't rained for half an hour and it's as bright as it's been all day. Absolutely no justification for not playing right now. A real shame." Rachel in Kingswinford added: "Ridiculous to call it off!
“已经半个小时没下雨了,天又亮如一整天。 绝对没有理由现在不玩。 真是耻辱。” 金斯温福德的雷切尔补充道:“取消它真是太荒谬了!
They want fans supporting Test cricket and those spectators have stuck with it all day - another 30-45 mins of play would have been a better look (plus saving authorities money on refunds)!" Another message from Paul in Northwich read: "This is a terrible advert for cricket.
他们希望球迷支持板球测试赛,而那些观众一整天都坚持观看——如果再加上 30-45 分钟的比赛,效果会更好(还能为当局节省退款费用)!” 保罗在诺威奇发来的另一条信息写道:“这是一则糟糕的板球广告。
It's like the umpires are waiting for it to rain again. At least the spectators can get a refund." Vaughan backs Lawrence for extended run in England team Lawrence impresses as weather delays England Play ended with England 177-7 in their second innings, 357 ahead and on course to win the match and series.
就像裁判们在等待再次下雨一样。 至少观众可以得到退款。” 沃恩支持劳伦斯在英格兰队继续比赛 劳伦斯因天气延误英格兰而给人留下了深刻的印象 第二局英格兰队以 177-7 结束比赛,领先 357 分,有望赢得比赛和系列赛。
Batting conditions had been difficult all day and it would have been another challenging period for the home side had they been asked to return for a short time late in the evening.
一整天的击球条件都很困难,如果主队被要求在深夜短暂返回,这对主队来说将是又一个充满挑战的时期。
"It would have been a tricky 40 minutes to go out there and bat," said Dan Lawrence, who made an unbeaten 50.
“这 40 分钟对于上场击球来说是很棘手的,”打出 50 场不败战绩的丹·劳伦斯 (Dan Lawrence) 说道。
"It's nice to have a good sleep and think about how I'm going to play in the morning.
“能睡个好觉并思考早上要如何比赛真是太好了。
I can imagine it will be with the same intent and trying to push the game forward.
我可以想象他们也会怀着同样的意图并努力推动游戏向前发展。
"Forty minutes of batting at 6.45pm is never an ideal thing."
“下午 6 点 45 分击球 40 分钟从来都不是一件理想的事情。”
The situation at Lord's came on the same day Durham were denied the chance to chase a victory target of four against Gloucestershire because of bad light at the end of the third day of their County Championship match at Chester-le-Street. It means the teams will return on Sunday for what could be as little as one ball of action.
就在洛德学院发生这种情况的同一天,达勒姆队在切斯特勒街举行的县冠军赛第三天比赛结束时,由于光线不好,导致达勒姆队没有机会追逐格洛斯特郡队的四场胜利目标。 这意味着球队将在周日回归,进行一场可能只有一球的比赛。
Gloucestershire were dismissed for 250 in their second innings in the closing stages of Saturday, with visiting coach Mark Alleyne claiming the light was already too poor before his team were all out.
格洛斯特郡队在周六最后阶段的第二局中以 250 分被罚下场,客队教练马克·阿莱恩 (Mark Alleyne) 声称在他的球队全部出局之前光线已经太暗了。
"I'm not sure where to start, really," said Alleyne.
“我真的不知道从哪里开始,”阿莱恩说。
"I mean, 45 minutes before we lost the last wicket, it was too dark to play, which would have been consistent with all the other days that we played."
“我的意思是,在我们失去最后一个三柱门之前 45 分钟,天太黑了,无法比赛,这与我们其他比赛的所有日子都是一致的。”
"We had probably 50 minutes of cricket there that we probably shouldn't have done."
“我们在那里打了大概 50 分钟的板球,但我们本来不应该打的。”
The match could have been concluded had Gloucestershire chosen to bowl spin, only for the away side to refuse and push the game into a Sunday when rain is forecast. "They asked if we would bowl our spinners to finish the game," added Alleyne.
如果格洛斯特郡选择保龄球旋转,比赛本来可以结束,但客队拒绝并将比赛推迟到周日预计会下雨。 “他们问我们是否愿意用旋转球来完成比赛,”阿莱恩补充道。
"Of course, we said no, we'll bowl our quick bowlers, in which case it became bad light, so we'll come back tomorrow."
“当然,我们说不,我们要投快速投球手,这样的话光线就不好,所以我们明天再来。”
Durham coach Ryan Campbell wrote on X: "Cricket sometimes doesn't help itself.
达勒姆队教练瑞安·坎贝尔在 X 上写道:“板球有时并不能帮助自己。
