Match referee Mike Procter was reportedly 8216;satisfied8217; with the security arrangements, after he had a meeting with the police commissioner VV Rabari to review the situation following unsavoury crowd behaviour in Jamshedpur and Nagpur.
8216;8216;It should be ok here,8217;8217; he said, his eyes gliding around the top of the shamianas covering the stands.
But Procter said it wasn8217;t so much the security as the 8216;8216;crowd control8217;8217; which is what 8216;8216;got out of hand in Jamshedpur and Nagpur8217;8217;.
In his opinion, he said, it happened at both the venues because India were losing, but hoped 8216;8216;it isn8217;t a trend8217;8217;.
Procter said there were enough cops in Jamshedpur and Nagpur, as there are here, 8216;8216;but the problem is there are too many cops watching cricket and not the crowd.8217;8217; At one stage, the former South African all-rounder had even said that the West Indians would have walkd out after the crowd trouble at Nagpur.
