On a day of
Christmas, Hrishikesh Kanitkar had to endure an
eventful ODI debut as
the match between India and Sri Lanka, at Nehru Stadium, Indore found its place
dubiously in the record books as the first ever incident of its kind. A local
lawyer even
demanded that the captains Arjuna Ranatunga & Sachin Tendulkar, and the match
referee Ahmed Ibrahim be arrested.
What was the fuss all
about?
After the third over, both the captains felt that the pitch was dangerous for the players to play on. The match referee then called off the match.
