Jonathan Agnew on TMS: "Heavy rain coming over the hills now - this is not the start we wanted. The players have left the field and it's taking about 15 people to drag the big blue cover over the square"
1605: Aggers on TMS reveals the team news - Aussies are unchanged, while Pakistan appear to be as well... oh drat, covers going back on again. The rain is "light but persistent".
1603: Right, the covers are coming off but we're going to have a slightly delayed start while the ground is made ready - they're going to toss at 1610 BST to start play at 1630.
1555: Afternoon, everyone - and a warm welcome to the second semi-final of the ICC World Twenty20, with Australia taking on Pakistan in St Lucia at 1630 BST for the right to play England (yes, England, that isn't a typo) in the final. Unfortunately, even though all the previous St Lucia games have escaped the weather (and it's a fast-draining ground), there's a slight worry today, as revealed by Aggers on Twitter about an hour ago...
BBC cricket correspondent Jonathan Agnew on Twitter:"Just interviewed buoyant Andy Flower. Pouring with rain. On air 4pm for Australia/Pakistan"
