Afghan Cricket Board upset over poor facilities at Indian stadium

The only Test match between Afghanistan and New Zealand in Noida, India, has been delayed amid poor facilities, with the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) criticising the venue.

The only Test match between Afghanistan and New Zealand was supposed to start yesterday, but the first day was wasted due to wet outfield and even though it did not rain all day in Noida, the toss could not take place on the first day.

The toss is also delayed on the second day of the Test match.

The drainage system in the Noida Stadium is poor, and there are no proper and modern facilities to cover the outfield. Standing water in the stadium could not be dried throughout the day.

The Afghan Board officials said, “There is a lot of confusion, we will not come to this Indian venue again. The players are also unhappy with the facilities here.”

The Test match is a part of the International Cricket Council (ICC) World Test Championship.
