The third ODI between India and West Indies on October 14 in Visakhapatnam has already been abandoned because of a cyclone on the country's east coast. The game will not be rescheduled and the series is now a four-match contest.

The Indian Meteorological Department had issued warnings about Cyclone Hudhud at least three days in advance, but the BCCI decided against moving the game out of Visakhapatnam, a port city where the cyclone made landfall on Sunday. A BCCI source said it would have been logistically difficult to move the match to another venue in two days time.

Unfortunate. We could have benefited from that extra game.

And as usual, the management cancels the match instead of re-scheduling or simply playing it on the same ground as the last ODI match.

“The situation is very bad. Roads are blocked and there is no transportation. It’s impossible for anyone to move out of their hotels or homes. We have lost connection to phones and internet as well. We were very confident of hosting the match, but we don’t expect a miracle now. The ground, though, has been fully covered.”
