New Delhi: The third One-Day International match between South Africa and Sri Lanka was stopped for over an hour after a swarm bees arrived in the field on Saturday.

Frightened cricketers were seen staying low, face down on the ground even as ground staff emptied two fire extinguishers in the hope of chasing the invaders at Johannesburg`s Wanderers Stadium away.
