India-South Africa T20 game called off due to fog

SAJJAD HUSSAIN / AFP

The fourth T20 international between India and South Africa in Lucknow on Wednesday was called off without a ball being bowled due to excessive fog at the Ekana Cricket Stadium.

The umpires made field inspections every 30 minutes, only to find no improvement in the visibility as a dense fog hung in the air and enveloped the floodlights.

The match was called off before the toss could take place.

India lead the five-match series 2-1. The final T20 game will take place in Ahmedabad on Friday.
