The first ODI match played during India’s tour of New Zealand in 2019 was halted due to the sun. It is worth noting that the first match of that tour of India was played at McLean Park, Napier. Usually the pitches in a stadium are situated in the north-south direction, but in Napier the pitch is in the east-west direction, due to which the sunlight was falling directly in the eyes of the players in that match. After this, Indian team’s opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan complained to the umpire about this. Umpire Shaun Haig discussed this incident in an interview and said that the sun is directly in the eyes of the batsmen. Therefore, we have to consider the safety of the players and the umpires. Therefore, we have decided to postpone the game until the situation improves. This was the first time in my 14 years that I have seen something like this happen on a cricket field. The good news is that we have 30 minutes of extra time. We are hoping to be back in 30 minutes and it will still be a 50-over game. India won the match by 8 wickets On the other hand, if we tell you about the situation of that match, India won the match by 8 wickets. Due to rain, the match was reduced to 38-38 overs. Batting first, New Zealand had set a target of 157 runs for India to win, which India achieved by losing 2 wickets. Dhawan remained unbeaten by scoring 75* runs in the match.

That’s why these 2 players could give Afghanistan a peak at what it can achieve over the next decade. See this post of Ashwin This one off Test will be fun to watch.
