Forecast for tomorrow isn't good too but we do hope that we get at least 20 overs tomorrow so that a deserving team reaches the final after playing good cricket.
The good thing is that the match will be resuming at 10:30 am and the first bout of rain is predicted after 12pm (GMT). And after that brief interruption, there is no issue with rain until 5pm. So we should be having a proper 50 over match, as less than 54 overs are remaining. But obviously, these weather predictions are not 100% reliable, especially in case of England.

If NZ inning declared tomorrow before playing any single ball then India has to play and run according to below 46 overs 237 Runs
40 overs 223 Runs
35 overs 209 Runs
30 overs 192 Runs
25 overs 172 Runs
20 overs 148 Runs
Hitting 148 runs in 20 over is not easy.
And if rain continues then India will be in final and it deserve it. Because of their performance, India is on top of list. As Indian I wish India enter in final without playing a match

It seems to me that such situations happen in different sports and they are really unfair. It seems to me that in some cases you need to change the rules to take into account weather conditions. We are watching the competition teams, and not on the actions of people in extreme conditions.
I am a true soccer fan and nothing will stop the game play whether it is rain or snow the match continues, cricket is not a one dimensional sport and weather will play a significant role in the outcome of the match and hence to find a balance is very difficult. The good news is that the play will continue tomorrow from where it is interrupted as they have a reserve day, but the intricacies that comes if tomorrow is also affected by rain is a hard puzzle for me to understand because of the probability factor and it is just a fictitious calculation

More bad news from Old Trafford:" And rain has picked up," says Sambit. "And that could be that." As we'd mentioned earlier the forecast isn't promising for tomorrow either.
No need to wait now. This game will not resume today. That's my early prediction. If the weather remain bad tomorrow also, India will reach the finals without playing and competing.
Rain stoped, and now it's upto umpires, if they can resume game today or not, If it will start today, it will most probably not more than 25 overs. Chasing 172 in 25 overs won't going to be easy for India.
I just want it will start tomorrow, it will be really hard to chase that score in 25 or 20 overs.
There will be final inspection at 6:10 PM Local Time (about 15 mins from now). If the rain stopped, outfield is suitable dry enough and play is possible, then we should have a play today as per the procedures. Also think about the crowd who have come to watch the match and bought the tickets.
Edit: Its started drizzling again. Good for India
Now there is no chance, match will resume today, match will start tomorrow and from where it's stopped if weather allow to resume.
That 30-40 runs New Zealand will make on their last 4 overs will be bad thing for India, Pitch will swing in morning and New Zealand bowlers are capable of using those seaming conditions.
I think it is a fair decision. Rather than going with 20 -25 overs, it better to resume tomorrow and play with full 50 overs.
Thank god we have reserve days for the semi finals.

If it would be a regular match then Bhomra had two overs left and it would be very hard for New Zealand to score from his overs. DLS also sucks it's no where perfect in my opinion.
It is a tough spot as rain has played a major role in this tournament and if New Zealand would have played India in the league stages and if India defeated them Pakistan would have being in the semi finals instead of New Zealand and i never understood the DLS method till now and if India have to chase 237 runs and with the wet ground it will be difficult for the batsmen to score easily and it is not a fair situation and there is no other alternative situation to figure out in these situations is a bummer.World Cup rules were made before the start of the world cup and they are same for all the teams. If we change the rules from match to match, then it will be more unfair for one team to another. We need to accept and live with the already defined rules.

Now if another teams have to face such disadvantages, why complain start ? Why People raising voices now ?

WC cricket in rainy season does not look good. This is the first world cup where we have seen most number of matches were washed out but we can not do much. Cricket is a part of a system. England and Walsh could prepare well like having covered the whole ground if the rain comes or picking venue where the chances of rain is less.It is a tough spot as rain has played a major role in this tournament and if New Zealand would have played India in the league stages and if India defeated them Pakistan would have being in the semi finals instead of New Zealand and i never understood the DLS method till now and if India have to chase 237 runs and with the wet ground it will be difficult for the batsmen to score easily and it is not a fair situation and there is no other alternative situation to figure out in these situations is a bummer.
Anyway, let's hope we see a finished semi which we should see.

One thing is sure that NZ cannot bat now. Time is running and we are losing the overs now. DLS will come into play and India will get a stiff target ( as compare the original one if it had not been rained).
NZ now have a serious chance of performing good in this match. Lets hope we do get play and result today.
If the adjusted target for India become 237 in 46 overs then it's a gain for New Zealand. They will get some extra runs and India is losing 4 overs on top of it.NZ now have a serious chance of performing good in this match. Lets hope we do get play and result today.
If the inning were to continue the India had to chase 237 (say kiwis were able to score in 50 overs) from 300 balls but now they will have 276 balls in hand to chase. Am I doing the correct math here?

India seemed to be in control all the way, but I don't know what will happen now. This is the first time that I have observed rain affecting such a big tournament so drastically. Lets see what happens.

if New Zealand didn't bat again in their innings, India's 20-over score would be 148. And their DLS-adjusted target for 46 overs would be 237

Let's just hope the game continues, That'd be in India best interest, I'd rather the match continues from this point tomorrow than having to settle for 20 overs.

15:43 local time: Some good news coming in is that the rain has subsided a fair bit! Just a slight drizzle at the moment as the groundsmen do their thing on the field. Let's hope the rain stays away.

Another match being threatened by rain. Honestly, selecting this season for the World Cup is probably one of the worst decisions that ICC has taken over the years. They literally had years to plan this through.
