The Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board have launched an investigation after the fourth and final Test between India and West Indies lasted just 22 overs due to a waterlogged outfield.
No play was possible at the Queen’s Park Oval on Monday’s scheduled last day of the match, the fourth consecutive day on which there was no play because of saturated areas around the playing square.
With the match abandoned as a draw, India won the series 2-0, the first time they have won more than one Test in a series in the Caribbean.
This is the third lowest duration match in the test match history ,the match umpire .Ranjan Madugalle talked with both the captains and then called off the match .
“As hosts, the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board and QPCC (Queen’s Park Cricket Club) regret that limited play was possible in the 4th Test Match between WI and India at the Queen’s Park Oval,” Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board president Azim Bassarath said in a statement.
“We have jointly launched an investigation to determine what occurred with a view to remedying the situation so that this does not occur in the future,” the statement continued.”Once this has been done it will be presented to the WICB (West Indies Cricket Board).”
West Indies and India will play two Twenty20 Internationals in Lauderhill, Florida, on August 27 and 28 as both teams seek to tap into the huge expatriate Indian population in the United States.
