Wankhede Stadium
MUMBAI: Many residents around Wankhede Stadium want the IPL matches scheduled to be played there shifted as they fear crowds could worsen the Covid situation in the area.
When buses with some of the cricketers arrived at a star hotel at Nariman Point, there was a crowd to watch them. Though spectators are not allowed for the IPL matches, the residents fear similar crowds could gather at the stadium, near where many buildings are sealed due to Covid cases, said a letter written to CM Uddhav Thackeray on April 2 by Asit Shroff, a resident of D Road, just across the Wankhede Stadium.
