A Sri Lanka T20 tie played close Mohali, cops test wrong 'un 


 Live activity is coming up right from Badulla Cricket Ground… " 

The discourse on YouTube on June 29 morning was purportedly of a cricket match of the Uva T20 association being played in Badulla in Sri Lanka. Just, it wasn't. 



The game was played at a ground in Sawara town, 16 km from Chandigarh off Punjab State Highway 12A. No Sri Lankans were playing, just obscure cricketers from Punjab, wearing veils over their countenances and bright, numbered pullovers. 

The Uva cricket affiliation revealed to The Indian Express that it was running no such competition. Large names like Farvez Maharoof, the previous Sri Lanka allrounder, denied they were included, as had been asserted in the rundown of crews distributed on some online cricket locales. 

The game at "Badulla" was secured live by FanCode, whose parent organization Dream Sports has Dream 11 as one of its brands. Dream 11, a dream sports stage, is a supporter of the Indian Premier League. Indian games locales, for example, Sportskeeda ran a live scorecard. 

Camera edges were essential, situated close to the two sightscreens, and there were periodic shots from the third man district. Pictures were ordinarily long shots; when they zoomed in once in a while, it was hysterical and jostling, and it was hard to see faces unmistakably. 

The observer generally didn't try to distinguish players, and made statements like "somebody should get that, and I can see a person getting under it". 

The Uva Province Cricket Association (UPCA) situated in Badulla denied any inclusion in the T20 group. We are examining this issue and are in conversation with Sri Lanka Cricket and other pertinent specialists," UPCA right hand secretary Bhagiradhan said. 

A FanCode representative said they were in contact with Sri Lanka Cricket, and were helping in the examination. 

 Indeed, even with this occasion we were in contact with the coordinators who furnished us with the Letter of Sanction from Uva Province Cricket Association alongside an email from the official email ID of Sri Lanka Cricket that gave affirmation of the competition. After Day 1 of the competition, where we gushed two matches, the legitimate group of SLC contacted us and educated us that the matches are not endorsed by them and the archives that have been given to us were likely produced. When we got this suggestion, we promptly quit gushing these matches on our foundation," the representative said.
