Protesting Wrestlers Denied Entry In CSK vs DC Match, Alleges Sakshi Malik

Top Indian wrestler Sakshi Malik, who along with other grapplers is protesting against Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, on Saturday alleged that they were denied entry at the Arun Jaitley Stadium for the IPL 2023 game between Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals, despite having match tickets.

"We all five had match tickets and we were going to watch the game. Delhi Police took our tickets first, then we were taken to an uncertain location," Sakshi told IANS.

"Police said that they would give us VIP treatment but tried to detain us. We then demanded our tickets and said we won`t watch the game now and returned," said another wrestler, who was present there with Sakshi.

Notably, India`s top wrestlers Sakshi, Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia have been demanding the arrest of Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh for allegedly sexually harassing seven women grapplers.

The protest at Jantar Mantar entered the 28th day on Saturday with no solution in sight.

How can LSG takeover CSK's second spot in IPL table

Chennai Super Kings showcased their dominance in a commanding performance against the struggling Delhi Capitals, solidifying their position among the top two teams in the IPL 2023 points table and securing a spot in the playoffs. While there is a slim possibility for Lucknow Super Giants to match CSK's points and surpass their net run rate, they must defeat the Kolkata Knight Riders by a margin of at least 97 runs or more in order to claim the second spot in the points table. The teams ranked first and second in the points table will face each other in Qualifier One, while the third and fourth teams will compete in the Eliminator match.

Chennai Super Kings' comprehensive victory not only secured their position in the top two but also showcased their dominance in the tournament. With their strong batting lineup and disciplined bowling attack, they will be a formidable force to contend with in the upcoming playoffs.
