Yesterday’s match between Delhi Capitals and Kings XI Punjab appeared like a real fun. Rabada’s performance in the thrilling super over took Delhi to the victory. Batting first, Delhi Capitals scored 157 for 8 in the allotted 20 overs where stoins shined with gritty batting, while Half of the Kings XI Punjab side were out of the pavilion during their turn and disappointed until Mayank Agarwal’s heroic knock of 89 runs in 60 balls pushed them close to the victory.
However, there was a wrong decision given by the umpire as short run in the game, which was not in first place.
In this regard actress and owner of Kings X1 Punjab Preity Zinta seemed to be unhappy and shared about it on Twitter: “I’ve always believed in being graceful in a win or loss & in the spirit of the game but it’s also important to ask for policy changes that improve the game in the future for everyone. The past has happened and it’s imp to move on. So Looking ahead & being positive as always” (sic).
she also said, the short run hit her hard and in another tweet she said, “What’s the point of technology if it cannot be used? It’s time @BCCI introduces new rules.This cannot happen every year (Sic).
Virender Sehwag too shared about the short run decision and said sarcastically that umpire should have got the man of the match.
I travelled enthusiastically during a pandemic,did 6 days of Quarantine & 5covid tests with a smile but that one Short Run hit me hard. What’s the point of technology if it cannot be used? It’s time @BCCI introduces new rules.This cannot happen every year. #DCvKXIP @lionsdenkxip https://t.co/uNMXFJYfpe
