The toss for the fourth T20I between India and South Africa has been further delayed, with match officials scheduling another inspection at 7:30 PM local time after conditions failed to improve at the ground.
Persistent thick fog continues to hover over the venue, significantly reducing visibility and preventing the umpires from safely conducting the toss. As a result, South Africa players, who had briefly come out to practice on the outfield, were asked to return to the dressing room as conditions deteriorated once again.
Earlier, an inspection was planned at 6:50 PM, but officials deemed visibility inadequate, prompting the revised assessment time. As of now, there is no confirmation of any overs being reduced, though further delays could force match officials to consider adjustments if conditions do not clear.
Both teams remain on standby as umpires closely monitor visibility levels. Fans, meanwhile, will have to wait longer for clarity on when — or if — the toss will take place tonight, with fog continuing to play spoilsport despite no rain in the area.
