Srinagar: Former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has lashed out at authorities at Chepauk as Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) home game against Lukcnow Super Giants (LSG) was delayed due to presence of dog at the venue on Monday.
Watching the drama unfold at the Chepauk, CSK skipper MS Dhoni and ex-captain Ravindra Jadeja were all smiles after the dog interrupted Chennai’s first home game at the IPL since 2019.
“This is just not acceptable… this delay. I mean, whoever has let this dog in, it’s not on. Chasing it is not going to help,” Gavaskar said on-air when as many as six ground staff members were busy chasing the dog at Chepauk.
Four-time champions CSK registered their first win of the season at Chepauk. Former champions Chennai Super Kings arrived at their Chepauk den after losing the IPL 2023 opener to defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT). Hardik Pandya’s GT side had outclassed CSK by 5 wickets at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Friday.
