The second Test between India and England marked a special beginning for Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, at Vishakhapatnam as it became the 24th Test venue in India. The auspicious occasion was marked by the presence of some of the biggest names belonging to the state’s political and sports fraternity. Chief Minister Chandra Babu Naidu, Chief of Selectors MSK Prasad, VVS Laxman and many others appeared as guests before the start of the play. All the pre-match events took place as planned and the game with a stadium full of spectators according to schedule.

But, there was a surprising thing waiting to happen later on in the day as an unexpected guest arrived at the venue and barged straight into the ground. In fact, the VIP forced the umpires to call for an early tea break. In what was a sort of bizarre and hilarious incident a dog entered the field. Not only that the four-legged cricket enthusiast entered the field but it also irritated a bit and brought some cheeky smiles in their face.

England players finally got to smile on something after being made to work hard under the sun Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara. Just for the information, entry at Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium is free in the first day of match and seems like that dog took that thing quite seriously and interrupted the play.

England pacer Stuart Broad first tried to scare that dog but couldn’t and as soon as the groundsmen arrive, the dog made everyone run and entered the field once again to irritate them, which was kind of entertainment for both players and viewers. That interruption led to early tea break of the second session. This could be probably the first such incident in the history of Test cricket. The tea break was taken in a bizarre way here today  as India and England players battled it out in the 2nd Test.
