The Board of Control for Cricket in India has said it is hopeful that the fifth Test with England in Chennai will go ahead as planned following the death of the local politician Jayalalithaa Jayaram.
Jayalalithaa, the popular chief minister of Tamil Nadu state, died overnight on Monday aged 68 following a heart attack on Sunday, prompting the announcement of a seven-day mourning period and a three-day holiday for schools by the local government.
Both the England and India cricket teams are due to arrive in Chennai next Tuesday – the day the mourning period ends – before the final Test of the series that runs from 16-20 December at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, with officials wary that public order may not have been fully restored.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
