I think the rain was organised on your behalf so that you didn't miss the match.  Now that you are back, it should stop soon wink

When did Kyle's family move to Beverley from Joburg? Are his parents South African? I've never really looked into it.

I believe they moved when he was 3.

So he's certainly a Yorkshire lad.

Not sure about his parents.

My understanding is that his parents were originally from Britain but were living and working in South Africa at the time of his birth.

Anyway the rain has stopped but there is a lot of water in the court so it looks it will take a little while to make it fit for play.

 Kyle's dad was born in Wales and his mom is South African. Kyle's dad grew up in Wales, Zimbabwe and South Africa. Kyle's family moved to the UK when Kyle was about 2 or 3.
