The second T20I between India and South Africa in Cuttack saw some ugly scenes on Monday as the fans started throwing bottles at the players.

Angry with India’s dismal show in the match, the fans started throwing bottles from the stands during the South Africa chase and umpires decided to take the players off and suspended the game.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery('.rel-article').bxSlider({ maxSlides: 6, slideMargin: 3 }); });

After a 25-minute delay, players returned but another similar incident after 10 minutes forced the umpires to suspended play again.

Twitterati reacted to the incident and called it a shame for India.

Disgraceful scenes in Cuttack. Nobody has a right to throw bottles onto the ground. Crowd performance worse than that of the players.
