Delhi aur Kolkata ke beech Test matches ka swap aur Chennai se India-Australia women’s ODI series ka New Chandigarh aur Delhi mein shift hona, kaafi charcha ka vishay ban gaya hai. Yeh faisla shayad thodi si planning ki kami ko dikhata hai, kyunki fans apne favorite stadiums mein matches dekhne ke liye excited the, lekin ab unhe naye venues ke sath adjust karna padega. Delhi ke Arun Jaitley Stadium mein ab West Indies ke khilaaf dusra Test match hoga, jo pehle Kolkata ke Eden Gardens ke liye schedule tha, jabki South Africa ke khilaaf pehla Test ab Kolkata mein khela jayega, jo pehle Delhi ke liye tha. Iske alawa, Chennai ke MA Chidambaram Stadium mein hone wali India aur Australia women’s team ke beech teen ODI matches ab New Chandigarh aur Delhi mein shift ho gaye hain, kyunki Chennai mein pitch aur outfield ke renovation ka kaam chal raha hai.
Yeh changes shayad pehle se sochi-samjhi strategy ka hissa hain, jo BCCI ne players ki safety aur behtar playing conditions ke liye liye hain. Delhi mein November ke time mein air pollution ek badi samasya hoti hai, aur BCCI ne is baat ka dhyan rakhte hue South Africa ke khilaaf Test match ko Kolkata shift kiya hai. Yeh ek samajhdar faisla hai, kyunki players ka swasthya hamesha pehli priority hona chahiye. Kolkata ka Eden Gardens, jo cricket ka ek iconic stadium hai, South Africa ke khilaaf Test match ke liye ek shandaar stage banega. Yaad kijiye 2001 mein, jab India ne Australia ke khilaaf Eden Gardens mein ek historical Test match jeeta tha, jahan VVS Laxman aur Rahul Dravid ne apni 376-run ki partnership se match ko palat diya tha. Aise memorable moments Eden Gardens ko cricket fans ke dil mein ek khaas jagah dete hain, aur ab South Africa ke khilaaf naye yaadein banne ka mauka hai. Isi tarah, New Chandigarh ka PCA Stadium, jo ek naye venue ke roop mein ubhar raha hai, women’s cricket ke liye ek nayi shuruaat la sakta hai. Yeh stadium modern facilities ke sath taiyar hai, aur women’s team ke liye ek fresh vibe la sakta hai, jaise ki 2016 mein India women’s team ne World T20 mein apne performances se sabka dil jeeta tha.
Lekin yeh sab changes ke bawajood, kuchh fans ke man mein thodi si disappointment bachi hai. Chennai ke fans, jo women’s ODI series ka besabri se intezaar kar rahe the, ab thoda sa udaas hain, kyunki MA Chidambaram Stadium ka apna ek alag hi charm hai. 1983 World Cup ke dauraan Kapil Dev ki leadership mein India ke iconic performances ko yaad karte hue, Chennai ke fans ko lagta tha ki unhe apne sheher mein ek aur bada cricketing moment dekhne ko milega. Iske alawa, Delhi aur Kolkata ke fans ko bhi thodi si confusion ho sakti hai, kyunki unke schedule mein badlaav se ticketing aur travel plans par asar padega. Yeh baat BCCI ke planning process par sawaal uthati hai, kyunki last-minute changes hamesha fans ke liye pareshani ka sabab ban sakte hain. Fir bhi, cricket ka josh aur excitement in changes ke bawajood kaayam rahega, lekin thodi si behtar planning shayad in disappointments ko kam kar sakti thi.
