Air carrier flight crew reported taxiway incursion during taxi for takeoff in heavy rain.

Narrative

Out of the north port we were given standard taxi instructions to XXL/[Taxiway] 1 ([Taxiways] 2-3-4-5-6). We turned on Taxiway 6 as normal. Once on Taxiway 6; it started to rain - heavily. I asked the First Officer (FO) to get wet" runway data for XXL/Taxiway 1. We were just short of Taxiway 1 on Taxiway 6; but hadn't received the uplink yet. Tower said to continue to Taxiway 7 short of Taxiway 8. We continued; and the FO started programming the FMC. Approaching Taxiway 7; I oversteered as I usually would for a 753 turn; but instantly I lost traction due to the sudden deluge of standing water. Instead of continuing the turn; and risking exiting the taxiway; I just gave up; and straightened up and continued down Taxiway 6 to 9. Once on Taxiway 9; I came back around on Taxiway 8. ATC was not happy that I missed my turn; which I knew I missed; but it wasn't like there was an opportunity to say so with the rapid taxi instructions to other airplanes. We apologized and then came back on Taxiway 8; turned on Taxiway 7; short of Taxiway 6. Then ATC got mad again because now our tail was blocking Taxiway 8. We said we were ready and had the wet data; and they said follow company to XXL/Taxiway 1. In all honesty; with all the sudden rain and water coming down the windows it was kinda hard to even see where Taxiway 7 was out the side window (no window wipers on the side). When I started the turn (753 you have to over shoot a bit) I realized I didn't have the grip to corner out a nice 90° turn. I figured it was safer to abort the turn - and get in trouble - then force a bad position and try to make the turn with the current conditions/position."
