Total Out of five matches three have been washed out at the Melbourne Cricket Ground so far in the 2022 T20 World Cup.
Stuart Law, the former Australian player feels that it will be difficult for the management to shift the venue in the middle of the tournament
“Melbourne at this time of the year – it’s difficult to predict the weather. Whether or not you say it to ICC or Cricket Australia to move up games away from MCG. It’s not something that the players want either. They want to play at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground. It’s an amazing stadium to play in and particularly when you get a big crowd, the atmosphere is unbelievable. So, to take it away from the MCG may be a bad call but there are couple of other venues that could be easy,” said Law on changing MCC as a venue in the ongoing T20 World Cup at ‘BatBricks7 presents Run Ki Runneeti show on CricTracker.’
Justice was done by both teams getting a point each: Farokh Engineer on Australia vs England washed out game
“Even if they had a five-over contest, that isn’t a game of cricket. It’s just pure brute slogging. That would have been further injustice to one of the top teams going off. In 5 overs, what the hell can you do? Just close your eyes and slog. That wouldn’t have been fair either. So maybe justice was done by both teams getting a point each,” said the former cricketer on CricTracker’.
