India vs South Africa The first test is being played at the Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata. The second and last match of the Test series will be played at the Assam Cricket Association Stadium in Guwahati from November 22, in which one rule has been changed. Where players used to get lunch at 11:30 in the morning, now they will get it after about 2 hours. Let us explain the whole matter.
As you know that Test cricket lasts for 5 days. The game is played in 3 sessions every day. Usually a session is of 25-30 overs. After the first session there is a 40 minute lunch break. There is a 20-minute tea break after the second session, but this will not happen in Guwahati.
This rule changed in India vs South Africa second test
Why are we saying that players will get lunch late by 2 hours? Actually, in the test to be held in Guwahati, there will be a tea break before lunch. In India, where the test starts at 9:30 am, the second test will start at 9 am.
There will be a tea break at 11 am, whereas this is the lunch break. There is a tea break after the second session, but in Guwahati there will be a lunch break. There will be a lunch break from 1:20 to 2 pm, then the third session will continue till 4 pm.
Why did the time table of Guwahati test change?
There is only one time zone in India, but in Guwahati, located in the north-east of the country, the sun rises and sets early. Currently the sun rises there at 5:30 in the morning and sets at 4:30 in the evening. This is the reason why the time of India vs South Africa second test has been changed. Now the match will start at 9 am, the toss will take place half an hour earlier at 8:30.
Will be the 30th stadium to host a test match
Let us tell you that Barsapara (ACA) will be the 30th stadium of India, where the Test match will be played. No Test had ever been played here before. The first international match was played on this ground in 2017.
