4th T20I: Toss In Lucknow Delayed Due To Excessive Fog, Inspection Scheduled For 6:50 Pm
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: The toss for the fourth T20I between India and South Africa has been delayed due to excessive fog at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on Wednesday. The next inspection by the match officials will take place at 6:50 pm. “Toss in Lucknow has been delayed due to excessive fog. Next inspection at 6:50 PM,” said an update from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on their ‘X’ account.
Earlier on Wednesday, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) had issued an orange alert for ‘very dense fog’ in 13 districts of eastern and central Uttar Pradesh. It also issued a yellow alert for dense fog in 27 districts from the eastern to western parts of the state.
The fog at the stadium has been so thick that spectators were barely able to see the stands situated at the opposite end. With fog set to get worse, there are concerns over whether the match will happen or not. It is to be noted that this is the first time Lucknow is hosting a T20I game in the month of December.
