THIS TIME FOR AFRICA?
The Morning Standard

SOUTH Africa had overpowered Afghanistan to enter their first-ever Men's T20 World Cup final on Wednesday.
They had made history and were all set to fly from Trinidad and Tobago to Barbados, where they will face India in the summit clash.
However, something happened.
Just when they were about to take off, the flight reportedly halted at the airport because a small private plane had issues while landing at the Grantley Adams airport in Barbados. As a result, the airport was closed for inspections by the Civil Aviation Authority and the Barbados Police Service.
"It appeared that the landing gear of the private aircraft did not deploy, but it is currently on the runway at GAIA [Grantley Adams International Airport] safely," Sharleen Brown, Corporate Communication Specialist with GAIA, said in a statement. Back in Trinidad, South Africa's flight was delayed for almost six hours before eventually leaving again.
