Floodlights malfunctioned twice in a single over during the second Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia at Adelaide Oval on Friday, December 6. The issue disrupted play in the 18th over of Australia’s innings, leaving Indian players frustrated.

During the over, Indian pacer Harshit Rana was on the field when the floodlights first went out after the second ball. The lights returned quickly, and the game resumed. However, just two deliveries later, the lights failed once more, causing another interruption.
Rana appeared visibly frustrated with the repeated stoppages, which hindered the flow of the match. Meanwhile, Indian fans creatively entertained themselves by using their mobile phone torches during the break.
Australia remains in a strong position after bowling out India for just 180 runs earlier in the game. Despite the interruptions, the Australian team has made a steady start with the bat, having lost Usman Khawaja's wicket early in their innings.
