Heavy rain hands Deccan their first point
The KKR Vs DC match at the Eden Gardens was abandoned at around 10:25 PM IST as the ground was heavily waterlogged. The only dry part of the ground was the pitch but the outfield although being covered had taken a heavy beating. With the match being called off, Deccan Chargers have finally avoided a defeat to collect their maiden point of the IPL 5.
Apart from the outfield getting waterlogged, a makeshift wooden structure for security personnel also came apart, injuring three people. "There was a temporary structure housing security [that was] broken due to heavy rains and strong winds. There were three minor injuries," Biswaraup Dey, the Cricket Association of Bengal joint secretary, told ESPNcricinfo.
The structure was located in front of the J block at the ground, to the left of the club house/pavilion. Out of the injured, reportedly two were policemen and the third was a spectator.
