KKR CEO urges Guwahati to find the Australian team bus attack culprit

The CEO Managing Director of IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders, Venky Mysore has urged the city of Guwahati to find the culprit who was involved in pelting a stone at the Australian team bus. Cricketer Aaron Finch tweeted a photo of a broken window pane of the visitor’s team bus after the 2nd T20I against India on Tuesday. The opener believes that a rock was thrown at the team bus while they were returning from the Barsapara Stadium to the hotel in city of Guwahati.

Australia won the 2nd T20I by 8 wickets and leveled the 3-match series 1-1. India’s eight-match winning streak was broken after the hosts were involved in a collapse. India were asked to bat first after Australian skipper David Warner won the toss.

Australian team shaken up by the incident: CA

“Pretty scary having a rock thrown through the team bus window on the way back to the hotel!!,” said Finch in his tweet. Warner retweeted Finch’s post while all-rounder Glenn Maxwell liked the tweet. The visitors had earlier lost the ODI series by a margin of 1-4 to Virat Kohli’s men. Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who is not a part of the ongoing series tweeted and shared his views on the incident. His tweet read ” The stone thrown at the Aussie team bus shows us in bad light, let’s all act more responsibly. A vast majority of us are capable of that”. The BCCI or the ICC is yet to respond to the incident.

The Cricket Australia board said the rock was “believed to be roughly the size of a cricket ball” and had ended up inside the bus. “In a remarkable piece of good fortune, no one was sitting on the seat next to the window when it was broken,” CA’s report said. “While no one was injured, the Australian players were understandably shaken up by the incident.”
