    So, it's still raining, but a bit less than before...

    Got it? Good.

    The rain is still falling here but it’s threatening to brighten up.

  3. Good news, everyone...

    Well, kind of.

    The Netherlands celebrate the wicket of Anil ShahGetty Images

    It's fair to say the crowd at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas is rather dominated by Nepal fans - most of whom are wearing their side's replica shirt, colouring the stands in shades of navy blue and red.

    It may be before noon in Texas, but they've arrived ready to party and certainly seem to be having a great time, despite the situation on the pitch.

    Tim Pringle struck again in the eighth over, seeing Anil Sah top edge his sweep shot to Logan van Beek.

    Paul van Meekeren then picked up his first wicket two overs later as Kushal Malla holed out to Max O'Dowd at mid-off, leaving Nepal on just 53-4 at the half way stage.

  5. I just hope there's a match to watch, Franko...

    The good news about the rain is that I can now watch most of the match after work, rather than having to sneakily watch it at my desk with bosses lurking about.

  7. We're getting an update at 18:00, but it doesn't look good - it looks very dark out in Barbados.

    There is live cricket going on in Dallas though. You can listen to the Netherlands v Nepal right here.

  8. Ground staff run on with coversGetty Images

    My club game in Edinburgh was played in glorious sunshine last weekend, and it's chucking it down in Barbados.

    The only conclusion is that Scottish weather is nicer than the Caribbean...

    Nah, probably not.

  9. Greasy crinkle-cut, lime and coriander poppadoms (not sure that counts as a crisp) and Thai sweet chilli have all got a mention.

    Sure you can figure out the brands for yourself.

  10. There's currently a debate in the office about favourite crisps.

    We're well and truly into the rain delay now.

  11. Netherlands v Nepal

    Nepal 21-2 (4 overs)

    Mike Peter
    BBC Sport journalist

    The Netherlands are presumably unique in this tournament in fielding a bespectacled opening bowling attack - and both were involved in their opening wicket.

    Left-arm spinner Tim Pringle saw Aasif Sheikh caught at short third by fellow glasses wearer Vivian Kingma.

    Pringle then gave way to seamer Logan van Beek, who removed Khushal Bhurtel lbw first ball.

    A great start for the Netherlands, and there'll be a few Dutch fans wiping their glasses in astonishment in the crowd.

  12. Meanwhile, in Dallas...

    Every minute that goes by becomes more frustrating for Scotland and particularly for Michael Jones and George Munsey.

  14. Nikhil Uttamchandani

    The rain will have big ramifications for some of the bigger teams in this World Cup. For example, this game is one that England would've been banking on winning so all of a sudden, if you don't get a result, every game becomes almost must-win.

  15. Jordan stats correction

    Those Chris Jordan stats we gave you earlier (16:54)... they were, erm, his one-day stats. So we apologise.

    But looking at his T20 stats, the drop-off in output is still apparent if a little less spectacular.

    His T20 bowling average in his last 10 matches is 33.2 compared to a career average of 27.8. His strike-rate is up to 21.6 from 19.1 and his economy rate is also higher.

  16. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    I can see a cover being dragged back on and the stumps being taken out once again. This is becoming very frustrating.

  17. Nikhil Uttamchandani
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    There is a very heavy wind at this time of the year and that's why we're seeing such stop-start rain. That is good because it blows the clouds over quickly, but we don't know how much more rain is expected.

  18. The umpires are out in the middle having a look, so hopefully we're not too far from a restart.

    While we wait, have a look at this six from Michael Jones, which was probably the pick of the shots so far...
