Smog plays spoilsport
The severity of air pollution and dense smog cover in the capital yesterday led to the cancellation of the two Ranji Trophy matches - Bengal and Gujarat at the Feroz Shah Kotla and Hyderabad vs Tripura at the Karnail Singh Stadium.

While Gujarat team will be leaving Delhi today for Ahmedabad, Bengal team will be staying back till Tuesday before flying off to Rajkot.
