New Delhi: The Assam Ranji Trophy team bus was subjected to stone-pelting in Guwahati on Thursday by anti-Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) protesters.

Had it not been for some vehement pleas by the players, who revealed their identity as state cricketers, they would have been at the receiving end of physical attacks. Assam were playing their first Ranji Trophy game of the season against Services in Guwahati.
