It is a great idea to play cricket in a location as exotic and as beautiful as Dharamshala. Unfortunately it means that you have to be at the mercy of the weather which can be quite harsh here at times.
The idea was to play the game at a venue which would not oppress the players with excess heat. In March in India that is a solid idea. However this season there has been a burst of late winter weather particularly in the North what with 15-year record snowfall in Kashmir; and if I read correctly, there might actually be a little bit of snowfall in Dharamshala as well to go with the rain.
A real shame because a good warm up match is absolutely essential in crucial series' such as this what with the number of side games so drastically reduced in recent times. Let us keep our fingers crossed and hope that the Lords ensure enough fair weather for the match to proceed.
