‘This story is for my future generation. The last two overs of the match were played inside the Mumbai-Chandigarh flight. Inside the plane, other passengers were also staring at their mobile phones. I’m sure the cricket-loving pilot deliberately took off five minutes late. No one complained about it. I have never heard such a collective scream from inside an airplane. This was while traveling on the runway.’- Ayushmann noted.
