Minor incident causes security scare
RAWALPINDI, Sept 18: A small, bottle throwing incident in the fourth one-day between Pakistan and Bangladesh scared the organizers and Pakistani cricket bosses alike on Thursday.
A water bottle thrown from the general stand of the Pindi Cricket Stadium fell near the Bangladeshi fielder Tapash during the Pakistan innings.
Tapash promptly ran towards the empire signalling towards the bottle which was thrown from the stands and was lying inside the boundary rope.
The empires halted play for a few minutes but resumed it later on. The bottle which was thrown into the ground was also full with soil so that it could reach afar.
A lot of bottles were also thrown from the same stand later on but fell just short of the fence.—APP
