The first match of the five-Test series between India and England proved to be an enthralling contest with the Nottingham Test evenly poised and set for an engaging finish. I believe (fingers crossed), there is no rain forecast up north or down south for the next week which means that we should be set for a full Test match. You never know in the UK; I am sure it may surprise but as we speak, no rain forecast for the Test match," Vaughan said on Cricbuzz. During the 2019 World Cup, a total of four group matches were washed out due to rain, making it the wettest cricket World Cup of all time. Even during in the World Test Championship final between India and New Zealand in June, rain washed out two entire days of Test cricket, while affecting the remaining days.
