Chepauk saw a case of bubble burst during lunch on the third day of the second test between India and England on Monday. A young fan climbed over the fence and onto the ground before security personnel saw him. He was handed over to the police.
Amid the Covid times, this series of tests has been played in a strict biosecurity environment, with both teams, match officials and everyone else related to the game operating from the respective bio-bubbles.
Fans were able to return to the stadium for this test, but the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association ensured strong vigilance to ensure that Covid security protocols are followed. Volunteers are placed in the stands for monitoring. Still, while reserve players from India and England were practicing during their lunch break, the bubble burst occurred.
