Many fans too reacted very strongly to the bizarre situation as drawing the 30-yard circle is the most basic of works on the cricket field

The start of play in the third T20I between West Indies and India was delayed for a unique reason -- something not heard ever in the more than 100 years of history of cricket.
The match was delayed because the ground staff reportedly forgot to draw the 30-yard circle on the ground at the Providence Stadium. It was only noticed after the umpires and players had walked into the ground and had to go back into the pavilion.
