The root of the issue is what Taylor describes as a worker’s rights problem. Taylor believes that voice actors deserve to be paid a living wage, describing Platinum’s $4,000 offer to do voice work in Bayonetta 3 as an insult.

Given the grim situation, the BCCI decided to shift the remaining matches of the series to Alur and M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru. “Rain affected play on the 19th August as well and it was agreed upon by the teams and match officials to call off the game as the conditions were deemed unfit for playing,” said Amitabh Choudhary, BCCI acting secretary, in a release....
