Seebarn Cricket Ground, Seebarn
The pitch is a batting paradise and if batsmen give a little to themselves, they can pile on huge totals. The 174 run total on the first day of the tournament by Vienna Afghans CC might have been enough to prove about the affinity of this pitch towards batsmen.
According to AccuWeather, the forecast looks omnious as heavy rains and thundershowers are predicted throughout the day. With 56 percent chance of precipitation predicted, the teams will be optimistic that rain-gods stay away.

Penultimate game of the day and it looks like a lop-sided contest as Salzburg CC looks much more superior than the Austria side. It will take a huge effort on part of Austria CC if it is to beat the Salzburg side.
That's all the coverage we could gather from Austria before rain came and played the spoilt sport. I, Lavil Saldanha and my colleague, Abhinav Singh take your leave. Do check the Sportskeeda app for all latest updates and live commentaries. Until next time, it is goodbye from our side. SEE YA!
Update: The match has been abandoned due to rain. The Austria CC Wien and Salzburg CC have had a tied match. Both teams share a point in this tie.
Update:Looks like the weather has cleared up as the covers are off the pitch!
There seems to a halt in the match as the umpires get together to discuss the weather as it drizzles in Austria. We will have a short stoppage due to rain. Stay tuned
