In that, the head Lalit Modi introduced an innovative ‘Strategic Break’ in between the innings. Again it attracted many controversies. Moreover, players also argued that it hampers the momentum of the match. However, Lalit gave reply that it is not an innovative break. It is adopted from other games like Basketball events.
