‘No food, luggage missing,’: Indian cricketer lashes out at Malaysian Airlines

Chahar joined the Indian squad in Bangladesh for the three-match ODI series, starting Sunday.

“Had a worse experience travelling with Malaysia airlines @MAS .first they changed our flight without telling us and no food in Business class. Now we have been waiting for our luggage from last 24hours. Imagine we have a game to play tomorrow,” Chahar tweeted on Saturday morning before team’s training session.

Chahar, Mohammed Siraj, Shardul Thakur, Shikhar Dhawan, Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar were all flying from Christchurch to Dhaka via Kuala Lumpur after completing the ODI assignment in New Zealand.

Malaysian Airlines sent Chahar a complaint link on Twitter but the cricketer said that it didn’t open.

“May be unavoidable due to operational, weather-related, and technical reasons. We apologise for the inconvenience caused,” the airlines replied on twitter about the change in flight.

Further, the airline tweeted that a representative will be in touch with him.

“A representative from our Customer Relations team will be in touch with you soon, to follow up on your feedback. You will receive a case reference number once you submitted the feedback form. Once again, we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience,” Malaysian Airlines wrote.

The three-match One Day International (ODI) match series between Indian and Bangladesh will start on Sunday (4 December) at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka.

Senior fast bowler Mohammed Shami has been ruled out of the ODI series due to a right shoulder injury and replaced by Umran Malik in India’s squad, the BCCI informed.
