“Gilchrist must wear black badge or else no Australian player would be allowed to play at the Barabati stadium,” Hemant Rath, President of Kalinga Sena said. Rath also threatened to disrupt matches if Cheers Girls would perform during the matches.
“Sena ativists will certainly penetrate the security net and stop the matches at Cuttack if cheer girls dance there.” However, BK Sharma, the Commissioner of Police of Bhubaneswar-Cuttack, said that they will ensure smooth conduct of IPL matches on March 19 and 21.
