Controversies Surrounding IPL Final: Leaking Stadium, Safety Concerns, and Unsanitary Food Practices

AHMEDABAD: A part of the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, where the IPL final match is being held, leaked during heavy rains. The rain came half an hour before the toss of the final match yesterday. After that, I could not even throw.

Due to heavy rain, the match was postponed to the reserve day today. Not only was there a partial leak, the safety of the stadium itself was also questioned. A female fan who came to watch the final grabbed the police officer and pushed him down. The reason was not clear.

Now another video from Steadith is being discussed on social media. The problem is the sandwich that was given to those who came to watch the match. The sandwich is prepared in unsanitary conditions. A worker applies a kind of paste on the bread without even wearing gloves. According to the tweet shared with the video, the price of the sandwich was 150 rupees before the match and later it was increased to 250 rupees. See the footage…

The secret art of taste in food available at Narendra Modi Stadium for IPL finals 2023. Due to heavy rains the food was being sold at premium rates too. Eg. Sandwich was selling at ₹ 250/- which was initially priced ₹ 150/- before rains pic.twitter.com/vKQc85HCwb

Hardik Pandya’s Gujarat Titans, who started their winning streak by defeating Chennai by five wickets in the first match of the season, have reached the playoffs as the first in the points table. But in the first qualifier at Chepauk, Dhoni and his team defeated Hardik’s Gujarat by 15 runs to become the first team to qualify for the final. While Gujarat Titans are coming to defend their title in front of their home crowd in Ahmedabad, Chennai Super Kings are aiming to join Mumbai Indians by winning their fifth title.
