Following the outbreak of Covid-19 after the World Health Organisation declared it a pandemic, various cricket tournaments, and bilateral s🌄eries have beꦍen either cancelled or postponed. And those which are still active are taking place behind closed doors, i.e., in front of empty stands.
Pakistan’s domestic T20 League; Pakistan Super League (PSL) is also facing a similar situation as the games are happening with no crowd at all.
The 29th match of the tournament was held with empty stands at Gaddafi Stadium between Lahore🌃 Qalandars and Mult🐼an Sultans, in which the former registered a comprehensive 9-wicket victory.
Without any crowd, nothing was exciting in the contest; however, Qalandars’ destructive batsman Chris Lynn found the fun in the situation when he was on the mic whi༺le fielding in the first innings.
When Multan’s opener Zeeshan Ashraf fell for 2 in the second over, Lynn made a side-splitting comment with respect to the atmosphere of the Gaddafi stadium.
“Another one falls, and the crowd goes wild,” Lynn said while playing in front of an empty stadium.
