Why is the media completely over reacting to the air quality in Melbourne

    The Australian Open practice matches have been cancelled & there is an ongoing threat to the tournament due to poor air quality.
    The current rating is 222 categorised as unhealthy.

    I just been for an hour long walk around Albert Park lake, there is zero bad taste in the air & it had no effect whatsoever on my breathing, throat etc.
    In fact other being misty you wouldn't know there was poor air quality.

    Compare that to Mumbai where the Ins vs Aus ODI is being played tonight where air quality in the last 48 hours has ranged from 82 (moderate) & 211 (unhealthy) which is pretty much a normal day.
    But is there any talk of scrapping any of the cricket ODI's?

    No of course not.
