Concept of "Uncertainty" in Contract Law - Cricket Ka Darr

Imagine you're at the Eden Gardens watching a Test match, but the tickets were booked by your dada for a team that's not even participating in the series. He says, "Chalo, let's go watch the match on the basis of hope that they'll make a comeback and play!" But then, the tournament gets cancelled due to rain, and the team doesn't play. Kya karega? Now, a contract is said to be uncertain when its terms are so vague that a court can't determine the exact obligations of the parties involved. This is like the cricket match - dada booked tickets for a team that didn't play, so the whole deal became uncertain. In contract law, uncertainty can make a contract void or voidable.
