Instead of Cricket, India and New Zealand Cricket Teams Played Foot Volley. Here is Why

After continuous downpours spoiled the first T20 International between New Zealand and India at Wellington on Friday, players of both the teams did not waste time nor did they sit idle. They played a fun game of “footvolley” – football-volleyball.

A video posted by BCCI’s official Twitter account showed India and New Zealand players enjoying the game. In the clip, players including Yuzi Chahal, Sanju Samson and Ish Sodhi, were seen competing in a fun match of “footvolley”.

“#TeamIndia and New Zealand team enjoy a game of footvolley as we wait for the rain to let up,” read the caption of the post.

In a separate video, posted by New Zealand’s official Twitter account, New Zealand players, including skipper Kane Williamson, were seen playing with his teammates while Yuzi Chalal and Sanju Sampson watched them along with Ish Sodhi.

“Football volleyball while we wait for the rain to pass,” Blackcaps wrote in the caption.
The teams used some chairs to act as the make-shift net as they enjoyed their game.
