In the ever-competitive ODI World Cup 2023, Sri Lanka is scheduled to face Bangladesh in a crucial match at Delhi in Match 38. However, the fate of this encounter hangs in the balance due to Delhi’s deteriorating air quality, which has raised concerns about the players’ well-being and the possibility of match abandonment.
Both Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have been affected by the smog in Delhi, leading to the cancellation of their practice sessions. As the city grapples with hazardous air conditions, the International Cricket Board (ICB) has taken the step of seeking advice from a pulmonologist to ensure the safety of the players and officials.
While the future of the Sri Lanka vs. Bangladesh match remains uncertain, India continues its spectacular run in the ODI World Cup 2023. In a dominant performance, India secured their eighth consecutive victory by defeating South Africa with an astounding margin of 243 runs.
