Desi jugaad in international match
This match could not be played due to heavy rains at King City (NW) Maple Leaf North-West Ground. Even after the rain stopped, the players of Namibia and Scotland waited for the match to start for a long time, but it was decided to cancel the match due to the wet outfield. However, a lot of effort was made by the ground staff to dry the ground. During this time a desi jugaad was also used to dry the pitch.
Actually, many times such things are used by the ground staff to dry the ground, which is surprised by everyone. These include the ground drying from the table fan, using hair dryer-steam iron. But there was something different to compete between Namibia and Scotland. The ground staff set the pitch on fire, so that the pitch could be dried. During this time, flames and black smoke were seen on the pitch, which surprised everyone. However, despite doing all this, the match could not be played.
