It has been raining heavily since the morning at Lord's, which means the start of play as well as the toss will be delayed in all likelihood. We will keep you posted, as soon as some official news trickles in. Meanwhile, here are some visuals from the venue:

And it's official. The toss has been delayed due to all the morning downpour at Lord's. The start of play will most likely be postponed too, and with more rain forecast for the evening, it remains to be seen whether a game is possible. The cut-off time for a 20-over match is 4:08pm local time, that is 8:38pm IST.

It is still raining, and the forecast predicts showers until late afternoon. It's turning out to be a wet Saturday in London. The groundsmen are waiting for the rain to stop, and only after that can they do something.

There is no respite from rain at the Lord's where the toss for the second ODI match between India women and England women has been delayed. The outfield is wet and both teams are waiting for the rain to stop.

Because of the continuous rain, the lunch break has been taken early and the overs have started to reduce from the match. The outfield is mainly covered with big sheets and there is no positive news from the ground as of now.

The lunch break has completed and it is still raining at the Lord's. The overs have started to reduce from the match. We are hopeful of some play but the weather has worsened since the start of the rain.

The wait for the start of the second ODI match between India women and England women have continued. The rain is yet to stop and players from both teams are eagerly waiting for the decision of the match referee.

There will be a pitch inspection at 6:30 pm IST if there is no rain. But the condition has not improved from the start of the rain. Outfield is still under water but we are hopeful of some play.

There was a pitch inspection and the umpires were ready to start the match, but another drizzle has forced the covers back on the ground. Stay tuned for further updates.

England women won the toss and opted to bowl first in Lord's.
