Under what conditions should cricket be cancelled
Ok, we have all heard that for the first time in GCA history (I am just going with this) that matches may be cancelled due to the forecast being over 40 degrees on Saturday morning. Does this mean ALL matches should be cancelled ? What options are open to the umpires or the GCA on extreme weather conditions. I would be thinking with extra drinks breaks and the like that most grades would be able to cope, and with a cool change coming in at some stage during the day will it be 40 all day. Interested to hear other thoughts on this and what some solutions would be.
