UPCA To Hire 'expert' For IPL 2023 To Avoid Pitch Disaster: Report
The Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association (UPCA) on Tuesday said it will appoint a pitch expert for the Ekana Stadium for the upcoming IPL 2023, in order to avoid the recent track disaster, which happened during the second T20I between India and New Zealand on January 29.
During the second T20I, no six was hit in both the innings and just about 200 runs were scored in close to 40 overs, which led to severe criticism of 'spin dominating' and slow pitch, by India skipper Hardik Pandya and cricket experts.
