The toss for the fourth T20I between India and South Africa was on Wednesday delayed for over 150 minutes now due to fog engulfing the Lucknow's Ekana Stadium.
The decision was taken as a thick layer of smog will create hindrance for the fielders if the balls are hit in the air.
The first inspection is at 6:50 pm, 20 minutes after the scheduled toss time. This was followed by four more, 7:30 pm, 8 pm, 8:30 pm and now one scheduled at 9 pm.
The bowling unit has been a brighter story. Arshdeep Singh’s resurgence and Harshit Rana’s consistency have eased concerns, though Jasprit Bumrah’s status remains uncertain. The inclusion of Shahbaz Ahmed could also influence the spin combination.
South Africa arrive under pressure after another uneven run. Frequent changes have hampered their rhythm, and defeat today would end the series. For the visitors, consistency rather than experimentation may finally be the priority.
But how can you watch this highly anticipated match between the two cricketing giants globally? Take a look.
