India Vs New Zealand match called off due to rain, Both teams share a point each
Virat Kohli was left bitterly disappointed as rain once again had the final say in what promised to be a riveting clash between India and New Zealand on Thursday.
The only two unbeaten sides so far in the tournament, India and New Zealand, were forced to split points as rain forced another game into abandonment at Nottingham.
“Disappointing not to get any game time at all but if you look at it from the player’s point of view and where the two teams stand, the sensible decision was to not go onto a field where it was not suitable to play,”
Virat Kohli
“It is unfortunate, you can’t really control the weather but a point each is not really bad for teams that have already won the games they have played,” the Indian skipper noted.
It is the fourth match of the tournament to be called off due to rain which is not only a disappointment for the Indian skipper but also for other players and fans.
This makes us question the decision to conduct an important tournament like the World Cup in such weather conditions?
Till then Let’s hope the skies remain clear and we can have a full match between the two biggest rivals of cricket – India vs Pakistan on Sunday.
