Also, alternate routes have been announced. Commuters from Tapovan can use route via Tapovan Circle, ONGC Crossroads, Visat T-Junction, Janpath T-Junction, Powerhouse Crossroads, and Prabodh Raval Circle.
Fans reaching Krupa T-junction are advised to take Sharan Status Crossroads and Bhat–Koteshwar Road toward Apollo Circle. Police have also asked everyone to follow traffic rules and cooperate with authorities. Strict action will be taken against violators. As far as the match is concerned, Team India has a few issues at hand, the form of Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy to be specific.
The runs have not come from the bats of Abhishek and Surya, while VC has been very expensive in the last few matches. The management could look at Kuldeep Yadav as an alternate.
