During the Pakistan-India match in the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup, Pakistan Women’s captain Fatima Sana and other players had to spray the ground.
This interesting situation arose when insects attacked the ground as soon as the lights were turned on during the match played in Colombo, which worried the cricketers.
Pakistani bowler Nashra Sindhu first tried to scare away the insects by taking a handkerchief from the umpire, but the problem was not solved.
The match continued for some time, but after that, the players became worried due to more insects, so Pakistan’s reserve players reached the ground with a spray and captain Fatima Sana started spraying around.
Reserve player Iman Fatima also sprayed the Pakistani player’s cap, but this did not solve the problem, so after some time, the match had to be stopped and the administration sprayed the ground and the match resumed.
