Kotla ODI should have continued: Daljit
NEW DELHI, Dec 29: The Kotla pitch was by no means an unplayable surface and the fifth and final cricket One-dayer between India and Sri Lanka should have proceeded, according to former BCCI Pitches and Grounds Committee chairman Daljit Singh.
The Kotla pitch fiasco, which saw the ODI being called off after 23.3 overs due to a dangerous playing surface, had a direct bearing on the Daljit-led five-member committee which was sacked by the BCCI immediately after the incident.
But Daljit said he was amazed to see the match being abandoned, especially after Sri Lanka were already in the middle of their innings.
