Time lost needn't be lost because of rain - though that's the most
commong reason. In Durban, where the sun sets early and fast, it can be
hard to get a day's play in - even though the Test matches there
usually commence at 10:00 as opposed to 11:00 at most other SAn venues.

At The Wanderers it's not unheard of for time to be lost for light even
though there's no actual precipitation.
