Cricket commentator Mark Howard has called Victorian Cricket associations to cancel the games due to heat
The 16 clubs in the Cricket Association of the Bellarine Peninsula caused their matches to be canceled
'The local Cricket canceled my way when the league believes that it is too hot to practice a summer sport. What world are we really living? Maybe some extra breaks of drinks? A little more zinc? Thoughts?' Howie asked on the social media platform X.
Lotter's partner Stephen Quartermain also called the cancellations, labeling them 'Soft as. Very disappointing '.
Cricket Victoria's heat policy states that it depends on individual associations to make a decision on when to cancel accessories due to temperature.
“Associations are encouraged to develop their own heat policies, with the option of canceling the game in extreme conditions to prioritize the well -being of the players,” says politics.

'The way the world goes with everything else … creating humans with excuses for everything … sad,' was published.
'I will say this as good as I can, it is absolute shit. Crick on Hot Days is a great physical and mental challenge. As a society, we have chosen to have a low belly. The cancellation of the Crick due to the 'heat' is symptomatic of broader social problems', another sank.
Yes, it's not good enough! Sport Sport, take additional precautions, beverage breaks, etc. But he canceled … ridiculous', published another.
However, some Cricket fans said associations had the duty to take care of their players and that extreme temperatures should not be ignored.
“Tell your son that he feels outside the sun with his Cricket team during the same amount of time, see how he goes,” one returned to Howie.
A healthy world? We are not professionals. It is also an extreme fire danger day in some places. Are we simply ignoring everything else because we have a 5ths local game to play? Let's go partner, published another.
