Another embarrassing turn of event during World Cup in India
Shares
New Zealand is poised to face off against the Netherlands in the sixth match of the ICC Men’s World Cup 2023, scheduled to take place at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad.
In a surprising turn of events, the pre-match press conference featuring New Zealand cricketer Glen Phillips took an unexpected twist when a sudden power outage plunged the room into complete darkness.
This unforeseen circumstance left Phillips and the attending reporters in a rather precarious situation, prompting them to improvise with the help of torchlights and mobile phones to shed some light on the matter. In the midst of this unusual setting, Phillips exhibited remarkable professionalism and composure as he continued to field questions.
What could have been just another routine press conference took an unexpected turn with the humorous addition of a light outage. Phillips' ability to navigate this unforeseen challenge with a smile on his face only served to solidify his reputation as one of cricket's emerging stars, both on and off the field.
Although power was eventually restored, the memory of this uniquely amusing press conference moment is bound to leave a lasting impression on both those who were present and the critics of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
