The third Twenty20 international between India and South Africa was scheduled to begin at Eden Gardens, Kolkata at 7 pm on Thursday. However, due to persistent rain earlier in the day, the covers could not be taken off in time and the match has been delayed.

Needless to say, Kolkatans are furious. They have turned to Twitter to express their hurt and anguish at the situation.

Here's an opening salvo:


Vivianna Durao spent money on tickets it seems:


Modi bhakts are everywhere. EVERYWHERE.


Abhishek Daga holds a very popular opinion:


Kaushik is funny:


Utkarsh seeks a mystical explanation for the misery:


Why? Just WHY?


Ayan is more pragmatic and raises an important concern.


Ah, some bad jokes are good.


Yash Shinde may be right.


The match seems on course to be rained out. At best we will see a game where each side plays under 10 overs. A damp squib, indeed. But in Kolkata, this is an outrage. Worse, India have already lost the series. Such a depressing day, right?
