England captain Jos Buttler feels the 'poor' state of the Dharamshala outfield could compromise 'the integrity of the game' when his side face Bangladesh in the Cricket World Cup on Tuesday. Afghanistan spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman's knee lodged in the surface during Saturday's game against Bangladesh at the venue with the sandy make-up a cause for concern.
the only thing I would question is, if you are telling players not to dive and stuff does that question the integrity of the game? 'Worst-case scenario is something bad happens, but fingers crossed that doesn't happen for both teams. 'Any time you're talking about being careful diving, or maybe being careful when you're fielding, it goes against everything you want to be as a team. It's obviously not ideal, the way the surface is.
