Guwahati, Oct 1: Trust Assam Cricket Association (ACA) to mess it up every time.
Chaos once again reigned supreme at the ACA Barsapara Stadium here during the India-South Africa second T20I on Sunday.
If a snake slithering onto the field during India’s innings was not enough, the worst was in store when the stadium went into partial darkness during South Africa’s chase of the massive target of 238, causing a second interruption in the match.
Blaming it on a “technical glitch”, Assam Cricket Association secretary Devajit Saikia told PTI: “We have three parties handling the power aspect – our own 25-member team, a third (outsourced) party and the state power department. It was perhaps a voltage problem, some technical glitch.” Saikia said the ACA has used generator sets to power the match and not depended on electricity supply from the power department. (PTI)
