After Opening Day Is Called Off Due To Smog, Players Play Ranji Match Wearing Masks In Delhi
The match was between Tripura and Hyderabad at the Karnail Singh Stadium.
The Delhi smog is affecting everyone and everything, and cricket players are no exception.
Players had to wear masks to be able to get on the ground in the Ranji game between Tripura and Hyderabad at the Karnail Singh Stadium.
This was after the first day was called off due to the thick atmosphere.
The pollution levels have been increasingly alarmingly in Delhi particularly since Diwali and it is no wonder that play has been affected.

Visibility is almost zero and the players are finding it very difficult to see the ball and breathe properly at the same time.
This resulted in the second day also being called off.
