Jacinta is one of India's only two qualified women curators.

We leave you with this image of the curators Prashanth Rao and Jacinta trying to dry the wet patch using firewood.

FINAL UPDATE: The match has been called off.

It's raining heavily again - all the ground staff and officials have left the scene and are scurrying for cover.

Here's the current scene - almost completely covered in tarpaulin.

The ground staff has almost completely covered the playing arena. Sheets of various shades of blue have completely taken over the green turf. On one side, the ground staff continues to experiment with fire, hoping to dry off the damp patches.

UPDATE: The next inspection is at 8 PM IST

That's smoke billowing out of the 'fire experiment'

Mitchell Johnson is out of his commentary dugout and the crowds, deprived of any cricketing action, find voice in their throat. He's greeted by loud yells from one section of the crowd.

They are using fire to heat up the wet patches and relieve them of the extra dampness. Wonder how much that will help.

You know what's the best way to dry anything - heat. And the groundsmen are doing it with fire - quite literally.

All in all, it doesn't seem really great at the moment.

If you though the wet outfield was the only concern, dark clouds have gathered around - a heavy wind is blowing from one side and there is the occasional drizzle too.

The passing showers are not helping them one bit.

The groundsmen have been working really hard over the last two days, but some parts of the outfield continue to be damp.

Rain, and a subsequent wet outfield, ruined the first game of the day - with the Ballari Tuskers and the Hubli Tigers sharing one point each.

Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the second game of today's double-header, between the Bengaluru Blasters and the Bijapur Bulls.
