Weather and Toss plays a key role as India, SA square up on boxing day.

After playing a decisive role in the first Test at Centurion, weather holds the key to the second battle - the Boxing Day Test - too. In all likelihood, it's going to be one of those Tests where cricket writers also need to keep a close watch on met reports. The Test begins here on Sunday.


Weather reports here suggest that the elements will be a crucial factor in the contest with rain forecast for the first, fourth and fifth days of the Tests. On other two days too, the sun is expected to play hide and seek.
