ODI arrangements excellent:
Nov 3: The ICC match referee for the city ODI and former Sri Lankan Test cricketer Roshan Mahanama, umpires Ian Gould and A M Saheba visited the Nehru Stadium ground here this morning and expressed their satisfaction over the arrangements for the November 5 Indo-Pak match.
While English umpire Gould termed the arrangements as excellent, Indian umpire Saheba said people can expect a good match.
Gould, who is here for the first time, said it’s a tremendous ground and both the pitch and the outfield have been prepared in a nice way.
Mahanama said he would like to pray to the weather gods that rain does not spoil the match like the last India-England match. He was also quite happy with the arrangements. The ICC match referee, however, did not want to comment on the crowd behaviour. But he expects a sporting crowd to cheer both the teams.
