Xtra Time Web Desk: Rohit Sharma led Indian cricket team arrived several hours late than their scheduled arrival time in Lucknow on Wednesday, October 25. The chartered flight which was supposed to take off from Dharamsala had some technical issues and hence did not take off as scheduled. The Indian cricketers were supposed to reach Lucknow around 3pm according to schedule. But it got changed to 6pm in the evening. The flight finally took off around 6pm in the evening from Kangra airport.

The delay was primarily attributed to technical complications with the chartered flight that was set to take the Indian team from Kangra airport in Dharamsala to Lucknow. The players were waiting in their hotel in Dharamsala before being taken to the airport.

Such delays are not uncommon in the world of travel, where safety remains paramount. Despite the inconvenience, the team's priority would have been to ensure a safe journey, even if it meant arriving later than initially anticipated.

The Indian cricketers arrived at the Chaudhary Charan Singh International airport around 8pm. The Men in Blue will take on England in their next ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 game at the Ekana stadium on October 29.
