SYDNEY, Sept. 24 — Players were forced to duck for cover at an Australian State cricket match on Sunday, when a swarm of bees disrupted play at North Sydney Oval.
With New South Wales taking on Victoria in a one-day game that featured Australian national team players Cameron White and Peter Handscomb, the bizarre incident saw players hitting the deck and fleeing for safety as the bees buzzed through the stadium, coming to rest on a wooden fence where they began to make a hive.
“This time of the year they tend to swarm,” manager at Beekeeper Sydney Walhan Halloum explained.
“Swarming is part of their natural instinct and it is how they reproduce, new queen cells are born in the hive and they leave the hive with some worker bees looking for a new place to relocate.”
“They look for a cavity, most likely a tree cavity to build there new hive in,” Halloum said.
According to Halloum, the field just happened to be on the swarm’s flight path.
In the end though, there were no injuries to the players and the match eventually continued with Victoria winning by 67 runs. – XINHUA
