BBC Weather's Helen Willis: "It has been a soggy morning, but once the rain's gone it's gone. I'm hopeful that it's an improving picture today. It will remain 17 or 18 degrees."

The only cricketer that Australia genuinely feared is Ben Stokes. People have said that England have got no chance in Australia without him - I can't see how they can win.

So Hashim Amla's dismissal in the Test between South Africa and Bangladesh was the 70,000th Test wicket to ever fall. What I want to know is, what is your favourite/most memorable Test wicket of all time?

The ECB has handled it as well as they possibly could. I dread to think with what has been going through Andrew Strauss' mind. He has given the players a little bit of freedom.

Play will start at 13:15 BST, with the toss taking place at 12:50 BST.

Over the last few days, the controversy has gone up a notch or two. I was staggered to see that the England Test vice-captain, with the ODI opener, was on the street at 2:30 in the morning.

Matthew Birch: Re: Amla stat (12:12 BST), that means that one in every 138 Test wickets ever to fall was taken by Jimmy Anderson. Quite impressive really.

It's about the players. Do they need to get together and ask how do they want to be viewed?

Whatever the consequences are, the two players are not selectable and I completely understand that. It is important to see how the criminal investigation will pan out.

Some good news ... the covers are coming off and the England team are making their way onto the outfield to go through some warm-ups.

It can't be right that international sports people are given that licence and that freedom - to be in a nightclub on a Sunday night. The culture of the sport needs to change.

We can't have people saying 'it's understandable that players are out at that time'. It's important that cricket changes and gets into the real world. It's not acceptable.

The TMS team are currently discussing the Ben Stokes and Alex Hales incident and whether the England players should have a curfew ...

It looks like the rain has stopped but the covers are still on.

Still no idea of a start time but will keep you posted.

We'll soon find out whether England have decided to rest any key players. We do know that Dawid Malan has been added to their squad in place of Alex Hales.

Two certain absentees for the Windies are captain Jason Holder, who has returned home to attend his uncle's funeral, and opener Evin Lewis who suffered this nasty injury at The Oval.

Away from Southampton, here's a pretty pointless but fascinating stat for you. Hashim Amla has been dismissed in the Test match between South Africa and Bangladesh - it is the 70,000th wicket to fall in Test cricket.

Graham Wright: Would be better if these ODIs were not so spread. We could play two or three games over consecutive days at the same venue.

There has been some heavy rain in Southampton so we will not be starting at the scheduled 12:30 BST.

It's not raining at the moment and the forecast looks decent enough ....

Morning, hope you're all well. With England 3-0 up in the ODI series, West Indies play their final match of the tour.

As off-field events still dominate the papers, today is the latest in the year an international game has ever been played in this country. With the Windies playing for pride and Eoin Morgan and others in need of runs, there is still plenty for us to focus on today.

Not even a fantastic Evin Lewis innings ....

... Or a stunning Chris Gayle catch in the slips ...

... could prevent England from wrapping up the series at The Oval via DLS.
