Cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar expressed frustration after the series opener between India and South Africa was abandoned due to persistent rain. He criticized Cricket South Africa for their preparations, stating that leaving the field exposed to the elements could lead to no play for another hour. Gavaskar acknowledged financial disparities among cricket boards but argued that all boards, including CSA, have sufficient funds to invest in ground covers. Reflecting on the 2019 World Cup in England, Gavaskar drew parallels to the current situation, noting how several matches were affected due to rain.source https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/india-in-south-africa/every-board-has-got-money-sunil-gavaskar-slams-cricket-south-africa-over-rain-affected-series-opener/articleshow/105887774.cms
