Eng 72-3 (16 Ovs) & 407 vs India 587 & 427 decl | Scorecard

The drizzle continues at Edgbaston, but there's no immediate cause for alarm. The ground's excellent drainage system means the pitch should dry up quickly once the rain stops.

No overs will be lost unless the delay stretches beyond an hour - and the good news is, the rain has already eased.

Even better, the forecast looks much improved for the remainder of the day.

Now, it's just a waiting game.
