The second T20I between India and West Indies, scheduled to be played at Warner Park in St. Kitts on Monday (August 1), is set to have a delayed start. The game will now begin at 10 PM (IST).

The Cricket West Indies (CWI) confirmed that the start was pushed back by two hours due to the late arrival of team luggage from Trinidad to St. Kitts. The board issued an official statement, apologizing to all the stakeholders for the late start.

Twitter went abuzz after the announcement and many netizens trolled the West Indies board for their logistical delay, including former cricketer Wasim Jaffer. Here are some of the reactions:

Meanwhile, India secured a stunning 68-run victory over West Indies in the series opener on Friday (July 29) to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series. The Men in Blue have showcased stellar form so far in their ongoing Caribbean tour.

The visitors came out on top in the ODIs as well, completing a 3-0 clean sweep. West Indies will be aiming to make amends by coming up with an improved performance in the remaining T20I games.
