The West Indies team is currently on a tour of England. So far, two ODI matches have been played between these two teams and in the third match something has happened that it is difficult to believe. In fact, the West Indies team could not reach the Cannington Oval ground in London on time and due to this, the toss could not be done according to the time. All this mess was caused by traffic jams in London. The bus of the West Indies team got stuck in the traffic jam and due to this the match was delayed.
Players reached the ground with a fare bicycle
Let me tell you that some England players were also trapped in traffic and they reached the ground after riding a rented bicycle. These players were- Adil Rashid, Ben Docket and Jacob Bethel.

The good thing at the moment is that the West Indies team has also reached the ground and may be tossed very soon. This match will be played for a full 50 overs. Currently, the pitch has been covered with cover so that no problem is ahead and this match can be played well.
Alexander Raza reached Pakistan from England in a single day
Zimbabwe’s veteran all -rounder Sikander Raza played the final match of the Pakistan Super League within 24 hours of playing a Test match against England at Trent Bridge. He scored 60 runs against England in Nottingham on 24 May. The best player had dinner in Birmingham and then broke down in Dubai.
Not only this, Sikander Raza had lunch in Abu Dhabi and reached Pakistan 10 minutes before the toss of Pakistan Super League 2025, where he not only participated in the match but also played an important role in his team’s victory. This was revealed by the experienced all -rounder himself. While Alexander Raza reached Pakistan from England on one side, it took a long time for the West Indies team to reach the ground from their hotel in London.
