Cricket World Cup 2023 | Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka LIVE: Islanders stand on Delhi air pollution

Sri Lanka team manager clarifies team's stand on Delhi pollution in pre-match press conference: Excerpts

[Reporter:]

 

They played a Test match; the pollution was also there. Have you spoken to those players in the team, how they dealt with it? And is there any do's and don'ts given by the medical team for the players while playing a 50-over match, like for the fast bowlers, or how to take care of yourself during a match?

[SL Team Manager Mahinda Halangoda:]

 

I think we are constantly in touch with our medical team panel back in Sri Lanka. Actually, the professor who is in charge is already in India. Actually, he had come for a conference and we are in touch with him, the team doctor. And definitely we will be looking at the index, but obviously we will be guided by the ICC and I think they have a medical panel here so they will be giving us instructions.

 

Obviously, today when we came, we were wearing masks, and we were told to wear masks. But it depends exactly what the outside index is, and then we'll make a call on it.

Cricket World Cup 2023 | Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka LIVE: Islanders stand on Delhi air pollution

Sri Lanka team manager clarifies team's stand on Delhi pollution in pre-match press conference: Excerpts

[Reporter:]

 

A lot has been spoken about this particular game being held in Delhi so I just want to ask, there was a news that the Sri Lankan team has placed a request of or not willing to play the game at this very venue and they have placed a request to move it out from Delhi. So, is it correct or if you like to speak on this?

[SL Team Manager Mahinda Halangoda:]

 

Let me answer that question. I don't think we made a request like that. We didn't make a request to change, but we were just asking ICC what happens because when we came here, we saw that the Bangladesh team has cancelled and we saw actually the outside environment. So, we just asked them what's the plan. So, they said they will actually have a discussion, and then they'll come back. And I think they have installed some equipment here, and they've got specialists to check, and they are helping him out. So, they have already informed us that they are planning to go ahead. So, we will do exactly what the ICC actually tells us to do.
