New Delhi, Nov 5: With the notorious air pollution putting Monday’s Sri Lanka-Bangladesh World Cup match in jeopardy, the ICC has sought advice from renowned pulmonologist Randeep Guleria to ensure that the game takes place as scheduled.
Bangladesh’s match against the Islanders has a veil of uncertainty around it as a thick layer of toxic haze has enveloped the city since the last four days.The AQI (Air Quality Index) is likely to remain in the severe category till at least Tuesday.
While a decision will be taken by the match officials on Monday, the game’s governing body has put in place mitigation measures like installing water sprinklers and adding air purifiers in the dressing rooms to curb the hazardous air pollution. (PTI)
