Lights went off twice on Day 1 Adelaide test: Mark Waugh and David Warner couldn’t stop laughing

As the electricity went off twice on Day 1 of the Adelaide test between India and Australia, Waugh and Warner couldn’t stop laughing.

A moment of laughter ensued between Mark Waugh and David Warner when the electricity went off twice on Day 1 of the Adelaide test between India and Australia. The opening day of the pink ball Test between IND-AUS witnessed high drama.

Floodlights on the ground went off twice.

During the final session on the Day 1 Test in Adelaide, the flood lights on the ground went off twice. The scenes did not please India pacer Harshit Rana, who was seen gesturing in anger. The lights went off first after the second ball of the 18th over. Then, two balls later, the incident repeated itself, much to the amazement of the entire crowd. Fans, however, made merry of the situation as many of them switched on their mobile phones’ flashlights. The commentators Mark Waugh, Harsha Bhogle, and David Warner couldn’t stop laughing.

Commentators couldn’t stop laughing.

While commenting on Fox Cricket, Mark Waugh said, “Oh, hello. They’ve run out of electricity in Adelaide. Pretty hot today. Plenty of air conditioners on.” Harsha Bhogle said, “Someone’s fallen asleep, so we have to wait. It’s a first for me, a Test match being stopped because the lights are gone. Is anyone there?” Replying to Bhogle, Waugh said, “I don’t think I’ve seen this in Australia.” After the lights came on, Bhogle remarked, “The lights are on again. Someone just turned the switch back on.”

David Warner made a cheeky remark saying someone didn’t pay the bills; hence, the lights went off.
