3 things of Elisa Hely- When the game was stopped, Alyssa was present in the stand with family members of other players at the time. Assuming that this is a minor problem, Alyssa and others present with him remain calm first, but then things got out of hand. They told …
- The light of some electric tower got lost and we were just waiting there. I heard a few seats away rumors that we may have to vacate the stadium, because the power has gone down. We were accompanied by a large group of family and additional associate staff.
- The next minute a man (who was with our group and took care of us.) Comes and says that we have to leave immediately. His face turned white. ‘
- Suddenly we were put in the van and we went back to the hotel. The situation there was not very good. We were sitting in the bus with some players from Punjab. I think Shreyas was on my bus. It was as if you climb in the van as soon as you leave.
We felt that we are safe in the stadium: Elisa Alyssa said- ‘The man said that we should go now. And we were saying, ‘Oh, this is fine.’ We thought it better to let everyone go out before the stadium and stay there. We felt that we are probably safe here, because everywhere people must be getting down from the stairs. ‘
Elisa said that things changed rapidly after this and we were taken to a room. Players from Punjab and Delhi were already present there. Then another man came, his face had turned white, he grabbed a child and said- we have to leave now. ‘
It happened so soon that Faf out without shoes Alyssa said- it happened so fast that Faf du Plessis did not even wear shoes. They were all waiting there. All were seen under stress. I asked Mitch (Mitchell Starc), ‘What is happening?’ And he said, ‘The city has just been attacked with missiles’.’
Alyssa said- ‘Therefore, the area was completely black out, which meant that the Dharamshala Stadium was like the only light in a dark at that time. I only realized the seriousness of the situation. ‘
All the players reached Delhi by special train on 9 May The next day on 9 May, BCCI, with the help of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab Police, took all the players, support staff and their families safely to Delhi.
