A nagging rain washed out the third day’s play of the first Test between India and South Africa at the Newlands Stadium here on Sunday. The India team stayed back in their hotel while the support staff had come to check out the conditions in the morning. Rain may have washed out an entire day’s play but neither India nor Cape Town will complain. In fact, some of the local journalists were heard saying that it was the India team that brought the unseasonal rains with them. Unless the India seamers come up with an inspired spell of bowling, South Africa could run away with the game.
