How do you play Rain Delay?  It's Easy!  Once you have your account, simply select your team from the players who are playing in the current match.  You will have to choose a team like what would take the field in a normal match.

We will gather the statistics from the match and add up the runs, wickets, catches, etc. for all of your players to give you a score.  You will be ranked against the other players on a ladder based on this score.

If you feel like making it more personal, you can challenge other players.  The wickets your bowlers take will remove runs from your opponent's score (and their bowlers do the same to you!).  At the end of the match the player with the most runs left wins.  You can challenge more than one person if you are feeling invincible.

Get your friends involved and give it a shot - it's a lot of fun!
