Well there needs to be a lot of filler content during a rain break.

So on Fox Cricket, Mark Howard has been taking viewers through a behind the scenes look at the commentary box and the food on offer.

Now he’s found former Wide World of Sports host Mark Nicholas who talked about his golf game and gave us an update on the rain.

“We’re definitely going to play, it’s brightened up but it won’t be easy to bat,” Nicholas said.

“There’s a couple of umpires wandering around like they know what they’re thinking but they never do,” he added with a smile.

Those umpires are walking very slowly around the outfield right now.

Howard predicts play could start in about an hour.
