46 matches so far. And not a drop of rain to affect a single match! Oh Rain Gods of the ICC Qualifiers, where were you in the 2007 World Cup? Or 2003? Or even the T20 World Cup 2007?

What can the official ODI teams and their fans do to seek your favor? What are your demands? Please let us know. We are ready to listen and act.

And, just for my sake, please don't rain on the remaining few matches. Two reasons. First, it's been an amazing and spirited tournament, and I'd hate to see rain play spoilsport. Second, I'll never be forgiven for jinxing a great tournament!
