It is not necessary that the game between teams or individual may ended into a result. Games could be destructed by any reason political or natural! Here are some events of Cricketing history those stopped the mood of the game.
2009 Sri Lanka Cricket Team Attack:
The most globally shocking cricket suspension occurred in Lahore, Pakistan, in March 2009. The Sri Lankan team bus was ambushed by armed militants, resulting in casualties and the immediate, indefinite suspension of international cricket in Pakistan.
2024 Bangladesh Unrest:
In August 2024, widespread civil and political unrest across Bangladesh severely impacted the sporting calendar. Matches and ongoing tournaments, including domestic leagues and international commitments, were brought to a sudden halt amidst the sweeping regime change.
Halts Burnt Toast at the Crease:
During a 2017 Sheffield Shield cricket match in Brisbane between Queensland and New South Wales, play was stopped for nearly 30 minutes. The stadium's fire alarm was triggered because New South Wales player Nathan Lyon accidentally burnt his toast in the dressing room.
A Car Enters the Field:
In 2017, a Ranji Trophy match in Delhi between Uttar Pradesh and Delhi was abruptly interrupted when a man mistakenly drove his car onto the pitch. He completely bypassed security, swerved across the outfield, and claimed he was just lost.
The "Spydercam" Crash (2015):
During the India vs. South Africa Test match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, the official Spidercam crashed directly onto the outfield, forcing a brief delay to the game.
