MSSA groundsmen unhappy with new uniform

It was a refreshing change to see the MSSA groundsmen in their brand new navy blue uniforms yesterday, given to them by the association, replacing their old khakhi ones.

However, it later emerged that the Men in Blue aren't too happy about their new attire. One of the groundsmen, Rajaram Gowde (52) told MiD DAY: "The new uniform gets dirty very fast, and on washing they dont dry soon either."

Gowde's colleague, Chandrakant Patil, said, "While the new uniforms look good when clean, mud stains easily show up on them, unlike the khaki colours."
