The cricket teams of India and Sri Lanka have reached Rajkot today
to play the second One Day International of the four-match series.
The activities of Indian and Sri Lankan players for the Rajkot
ODI will be under a heightened surveillance after the Nagpur incident.
The ICC team, in coordination with local police, would be keeping
an eye on every movement of players from hotel to dressing room.
Through six close circuit cameras in the dressing room, every
single movement by the two teams will be recorded even as the local police are
all set to monitor any betting activity in the region.
Strict vigil would be maintained to ensure that no unauthorised
person gets access to the dressing and hotel rooms, both in person and through
phones.
Meanwhile, all eyes are set on the second ODI at Rajkot
between the two countries to be played on Sunday.
The BCCI secretary Niranjan Shah, calling the coming
match a very important one, said the ICC vigilance team as well as the local
police would keep the tab of the developments at Rajkot.
Rajkot is hosting an ODI after a gap of 1.5 year, the tickets
for the janta stand were completely sold out two days before the match.
