The rain has arrived in St. George, Grenada, and Day 3 of the second Test between West Indies and Australia has been halted. The players went off during the 13th over with Australia at 21-2, and the conditions were pretty overcast right from the onset.

Clouds Of Uncertainty Surround St. George

The weather for the rest of the day is expected to be cloudy as well with showers expected till 12 PM, and thus, there could be some more interruptions on the way. Overall, the rain is expected to play hide and seek throughout the day and cricket fans would be hoping that it stops soon as Australia look for a big partnership after early wickets in their second innings.

According to The Weather Channel, there is a 57 per cent chance of precipitation till 12 PM. After that, the conditions will remain cloudy, but the chances of rain will go down as the day will progress. Thus, more cricket is expected in the final two sessions compared to the morning one. Overall, the temperature will hover around 29 degrees Celsius, and the bowlers are expected to get a good amount of help throughout the day.

West Indies Eye Strong Bowling Performance To Level The Series

The match is quite evenly poised at the moment, with Australia leading by just 54 runs. They have eight wickets in hand, and in total, 22 wickets have fallen in the two days so far. More of the same can be expected on Day 3, and if West Indies can keep Australia's lead under 200, they can bring themselves back in the series with a chase in the final innings.

However, for all of that to happen, rain should stay away for the majority of the game and cricket should be allowed to take centrestage.
