The gathering storm

The gathering storm

Whether it's a freak dust storm stopping play in Pakistan, severe drought in Australia or the disappearance of snow from the Alps, our fast-changing climate is affecting sport as it is so much else in the world. Ed Douglas introduces our special on the weather and sport, while experts warn us of further troubles to come

Take this remarkable image of a Test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh in Multan, where the batsmen were forced to leave the field by an all-encompassing dust storm. Were you aware that dust storms in Asia - and elsewhere - are increasing both in strength and frequency, because global warming is turning previously fertile land to desert? Equally, how many of us know that many Indian cities could be underwater by the end of the century, making wickets there more than ordinarily sticky?
