08:12 PM local time, 05:42 PM IST: So we have the final update and it's a dampener after all the wait. The match has been abandoned due to wet outfield conditions. The journey of the Toronto Nationals comes to an end as they finished 4th in the points table. Bangla Tigers Mississauga go through to the second qualifier against the Brampton Wolves which will be played tomorrow. The organisers and the groundsmen tried their best to constitute a game but in the end it wasn't to be. It was that kind of a day but you can't really question the groundsmen after the massive downpour earlier in the day. It's time for me (Arya Sekhar Chakraborty) to bid adieu on the behalf of my fellow commentator Darpan Tikiya.
7:57 PM local time, 05:27 IST: No update folks. The official update from the broadcaster still says Match delayed due to outfield. Until we get an official word we can't really tell anything. It has been that kind of a day. Please bear with us as we try and bring you some positive update pretty soon.
7:30 PM local time, 5:00 AM IST: Once again, the match is delayed. The "wet outfield" is being cited as the reason. There is no official word on the toss either. We are as confused and annoyed as you are.
The match would begin at 7:30pm local time. It will be a one over affair. STRANGE? Yes. But that is the official word. Since the outfield was not deemed suitable enough to have a match, we will have a super over to decide the winner.
7:05 PM local time, 04:35 AM IST: Toss coming up in 5 minutes. After a long wait, we finally have an official word. The toss was originally supposed to happen about three-and-a-half-hour-ago. It was delayed as the heavy rain had left some damp patches on the field. They were covered with saw dust but were still deemed dangerous by the umpires. Hence, we had such a long delay. The lack of communication from the officials has been a test of everyone's patience. But it looks like we are finally going to have a truncated game.
6:48 PM local time, 04:18 AM IST: No official word yet. The officials are still concerned about those wet patches we have been talking about. There has been no rain for well over two hours now. The players have been on the park for a while doing warm up drills. Yet, we have no clue about the toss.
6:18 PM local time, 03:48 AM IST: The umpires are having a chat with the two captains Shakib Al Hasan and Colin Munro. They are in their match gears but doesn't look like we have come to a conclusion here. The two captains now having a chat with each other as they inspect the outfield. Hopefully we will get positive news soon.
5:57 PM local time, 3:27 AM IST: The umpires are once again out on the park to inspect the wet patches. We shall have an official update soon. Keeping our fingers crossed.
05:42 PM local time, 03:12 AM IST: So the wait continues. Nothing new to report to be honest. The overhead conditions look promising but the outfield still remains a concern. The umpires walked through the outfield and weren't satisfied yet. We are keeping our fingers crossed. Hopefully we get underway pretty soon but until then please bare with us as we try and bring you some positive updates next time around.
Naimur: "Shakib seems confident and is ready for the clash" - So does everyone else too, Naimur. But alas, we have no official word on the start time yet.
