Upset with the South African cricket Board..!?
Former cricketer sunil gavaskar has expressed his frustration that the first T20I between india and south africa was abandoned without even a toss. The indian team, which is touring south africa, has participated in 3 T20Is, 3 ODIs, and 2 Tests. The t20 series has started first. The first t20 match that was to be played at the Durban ground yesterday was abandoned without even a toss due to continuous heavy rain. All tickets for this match were sold out. As a result, many fans gathered at the stadium and waited for a long time for the rain to stop. But as the rain continued till the end, the game was called off.
As the first match of the south africa tour has been canceled due to rain, the question has arisen among the fans whether the subsequent matches will also be affected. Meanwhile, indian cricket legend sunil gavaskar has pushed the South African cricket Board. Speaking during yesterday's match, sunil gavaskar said that only the pitch and the 30-yard ring were covered by tarpaulins when it rained in Durban, South Africa.
 If this is the case, the game will have to be abandoned. Every cricket association earns a lot of revenue. Therefore, if it rains, the ground should be completely covered.
During the 2019 World Cup, many matches had to be canceled due to the incomplete closure of the stadium. So many teams lost points. south africa is one of them. When it rains at the kolkata stadium in india, the entire stadium is covered with a tarpaulin.
