It's a shame, it's one fool trying to run it for lot of people."<br /><br />KKR's medium pacer Rajat Bhatia while reacting to the incident said, "It must be that guy's mind to come in and get the picture for the next days newspaper, I can only say that."<br /><br />A PCA official said that they had taken the incident seriously and asked the police and their own security to be more vigilant.<br /><br />A fan who was sitting on the terrace block said the intruder could have hurt any player the way he was going around unstoppable.
