Panipat, February 6
National Highway (NH-44) virtually turned into a cricket stadium as supporters of two factions of the Bharatiya Kisan Union — Tikait and Charuni — played a match near the toll plaza during a three-hour ‘chakka jam’ today.
Earlier, scores of farmers gathered on the highway and held a protest. Meanwhile, some youths started playing a cricket match there. The teams were named BKU (Tikait) and BKU (Charuni). The toss was won by the BKU (Charuni) team, which chose to bat first.
It made 56 runs in 10 overs. After tea break, BKU (Tikait) made 57 scores in 8.4 overs and won the match. The commentary was done by volunteers.
