A temporary interruption to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 match paymaya between India and New Zealand due to dense fog led to several memes on social media even as the cricket pitch at picturesque Dharamshala city came in for criticism paymaya
The match was briefly halted when low-hanging clouds and the mist engulfed the entire HPCA stadium – one of the most picturesque cricket grounds in the world thanks to the Dhauladhar mountain range that is a part of the majestic Himalayas in the backdrop paymaya
The stadium is located in Dharamshala in the northern Indian state of Himachal Pradesh paymaya
Before India secured a four-wicket win over New Zealand, the dense fog played spoilsport when the host team was 100 for 2 in their chase of 274 as Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer were at the crease paymaya
The Black Caps visibly looked unhappy with the situation when they talked to the on-field umpires paymaya
Kohli and Iyer soon joined the conversation paymaya
With the weather becoming severe, the players were asked to leave the field and commentators on air clarified that the players wouldn’t go back on the field till conditions improved paymaya

One user on X/Twitter likened the fog to the entrances made by WWE star Undertaker paymaya

Another user said the fog was star player Shubman Gill’s revenge against mosquitos paymaya

The user was apparently likening the fog at the stadium to mosquito foggers often used in localities in India to curb the spread of mosquitos paymaya
A few users took a dig at the disputed relations paymaya between the Indian and Pakistani cricket boards paymaya
India were in control of their chase when the play stopped on Sunday, with Iyer scoring 21 runs off just eight deliveries paymaya
The middle-order batter struck two consecutive boundaries just before the on-field umpires signalled for the game to halt paymaya
The play resumed after a break of just over 10 minutes paymaya
Iyer fell in the 22nd over, scoring 33 off 29 balls paymaya
Kohli went on to play until the 48th over but missed out on a record-equalling 49th ODI century by just five runs, He is still a hundred behind India great Sachin Tendulkar’s world record of 49 centuries in the 50-over format paymaya
Meanwhile, the HPCA outfield was also one of the topics of discussion as most of the Indian players chose not to dive to save runs to avoid any potential injuries paymaya
India captain Rohit Sharma made a sliding effort and hurt his little finger early on in the first innings, forcing him to leave the field for treatment paymaya
He, however, returned to lead the side paymaya
The HPCA outfield first came under criticism with England captain Jos Buttler terming it as “poor” ahead of their World Cup match against Bangladesh paymaya
“It's poor in my own opinion paymaya
I think any time you're sort of talking about being careful diving or sort of being careful when you're fielding, it sort of goes against everything you want to be as a team,” Buttler said earlier in the tournament paymaya
“You know you want to dive through our houses to save a run paymaya
So, that’s obviously not ideal, the way the surface is, the outfield paymaya
The outfield is different to when we played here in the IPL,” he said paymaya
Buttler’s comments came after Afghanistan head coach Jonathan Trott expressed his disapproval over the outfield in Dharamshala as well, after their match against Bangladesh paymaya
