More than scheduling arrangement was *ed up.....how come a 20-30 min rain can screw up the game when you still have 1 he 30 min since the rain stopped. They pored the water on the pitch which was accumulated in cover due to rain and that screwed the match.

Insurance money I guess ?

Guwahati has a reputation of doing these things even hours after rain gets stopped ,I remember 2006 odi match against England 

They will refund money to junta for this s**t show, right? Don't tell they get to pocket insurance money and ticket collection both!

[Prabhdeep Singh]

Wow, what a bunch of Dungar groundsman.

 

Wasted 2 hours for a meaningless T20 on a Sunday. Jeez.

This is on BCCI,nobody is held accountable for screwups,its all shifarish.

Not bcci but assam Cricekt association and the pathetic guwahati stadium management in particular. I have see  washed out games in guwahati before as well die to mismanagement from the groundsmen in general .

There needs to be an investigation, they cant go Scott free, people have come in thousands to watch this game ,leaving all personal works and all !

No wonder Kohli wants to play at fewer home venues. (although he mentioned that for tests)

 

Pathetic facilities to manage rain. Have fewer venues with more world class facilities

[VT87]

Feel sorry for crowd.  atleast they should have tried 5 - 5 over match.

For me too, Sunday morning here at USA, was perfect time to watch a good game, all got spoiled by one person, who did not know how to remove the cover from the pitch, damn. 

[vvvslaxman]

All these stadiums should be penalized. So BCCI should punish them.

it just goes to show that alongside physical infra you need to invest in human capabilities as well.

 

Gwuhati stadium is new and looks good. But if you dont have the capability to run it then it becomes an issue.

ask them how

Sundar batting s/r is 216

Bowling eco - 6.61 and avg 27

he has a man of the series 

 

jadeja batting s/r 98.8 

bowling avg 31 and eco 7.31

dont remember him winning any MOM or MOS ever in t20. Hasnt been an asset for even his IPL sides

 

jadeja has been as useless in t20 as dhawan .The only thing he is ahead of anyone is fielding which even makes manish pandey ahead of our batsman. 

 

jadeja bowling are predictable which is gr8 in test but terrible in t20. 

 

These ex cricketer have no idea about stats and format diff which is why still many think dhawan, dhoni is great in t20s

Lots of ex-cricketers speak absolute nonsense without any background check and get confused between formats. It's time Star Sports or Sony did some analysis and hire knowledgeable cricketers for commentary. Bhajji as a commentator is absolute crap.

bhajji is an idiot i remember how he wanted raina, rayudu n DK to be our no.4 before 2019Wc and was advocating dhawan in test cricket

this is endemic to desis everywhere,people dont do their jobs well,they have no fear of repercussions at all.

[ganeshran]

What a **** show by Guwahati groundsmen.. If they had got the covers on properly we could have had a 10-12 over match

Professional commentators armed with facts and figures is the way to go. Boot out ex cricketers from commentary box and have them only for innings break, pre and post match talk. 

[vvvslaxman]

Yo pant that is your job to tell where to throw the ball lol  Having said that  Shivam Dubey had enough time to see who is running where. Utter lack of presence of mind.
