Well, what was inevitable has occurred. The match has been abandoned due to rain. Switch tabs and catch all the live action from the third match of the day, provided the Rain Gods allow that. Until we meet again then, this is me, Maanas Upadhyay, bidding you adieu! Good night!
We've crossed the point of no return now! We're officially losing overs - one over for every four minutes that pass. Atlanta might just have to wait longer than today to get their first outing in this tournament.
No positive update yet as rain continues to pour down at Lauderhill. Stay tuned!
The covers are on and the rain is getting heavier. The start is delayed as more covers are being brought on now. A tropical storm is being informed on-air. Pools of water on the ground already. We're in for quite a bit of wait here, folks.
Well, a bit of bad news. The conditions have changed drastically and the heavens have opened up as the post match presentation of the previous game was concluding. We just might be in for a delayed start. Was a nice and sunny day right up until now.

Toss Update:
Atlanta Riders have won the toss and elected to bat.
Hello and welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of the US Masters T10 League, 2023. The fifth match of the tournament will pit New York Warriors up against Atlanta Riders at Lauderhill.
Atlanta Riders will be looking to get some cricket under their belt after their encounter against Texas Chargers was washout out yesterday. However, they had announced a strong playing XI comprising of some batting greats such as Robin Uthappa, Lendl Simmons and Dwayne Smith who'll be eager to get out their and prove their mettle in the shortest format of the game.
New York Warriors, on the other hand, played out a humdinger of a contest against Morrisville Unity, in the first game of the US Masters T10 that actually got going. They posted a formidable 124 runs which on the back of a swashbuckling half-century by Richard Levi. They managed to contain the Unity side for six runs lesser than the target and survived a scare in the last over, where Jayasuriya threatened to tie the match. They will be looking to keep their unbeaten run going.
We are in for a cracker of a contest and it promises to be one that will certainly go right down to the wire. Sit back, relax and enjoy as I, Maanas Upadhyay, takes you through all that unfolds over the course of this contest!
