Then there is no way to solve this problem.

See, the issue isn't really of making cricket an indoor game. Instead, it's an alternative to missing out on it. On your nice sunny day, you can still play and enjoy the game as it's meant to be. However, the weather doesn't decide it's state depending upon the cricket fixtures. My last 4 games in the last 2 weeks have been called off due to rain!! It's damn annoying. I know that having stadiums with roofs isn't really going to help my cause personally but it is for the good of the players, viewers and television companies. As I said earlier, some cricket is better than no cricket.Kev said:Cricket indoors, The Horror! The Horror!
Sure its a pitty when a match is rained off, but nothing compares to sitting down to watch a match on a good summers day.
