There was a ruckus in the last over

Ellis Capsi (16), Anabel Sutherland (13) and Sara Bryce (21) could not stand but Nikki Prasad scored an unbeaten 27 and brought the team to victory. Delhi needed 21 runs in the last 12 balls and 4 wickets were safe. 9th number batsman Radha Yadav hit a six and Nikki hit a four but was dismissed on the fifth ball. Arundhati Yadav won the last ball with two runs. Although the chance of run out was definitely made on the last ball, but the Delhi team managed to win. There is also a ruckus on social media on this decision of the umpire.

Actually, Delhi batsman Arundhati Reddy played an aerial shot on the last ball. Then she ran for two runs. Meanwhile, Mumbai wicketkeeper Yastika Bhatia hit the ball on the wicket, while Arundhati’s bat was slightly out of the crease and the stump light was also burnt due to the removal of LED Bells, but when the next frame was seen, the bails were completely removed from the wicket. Gaya but Reddy’s bat had come inside the crease, after which there is now a dispute about this decision.

Many veterans expressed resentment

Former Indian team captain Mithali Raj told the commentary box in the matter that the decisions of 2 runs related to Shikha Pandey and Radha Yadav should have been in favor of the Mumbai Indians team. Pandey was first given not out while his bat was on the line. When you dive and your bat first collides with the ground inside the crease and then it jumps up. But in the case of Radha Yadav, we can see the blade of the bat above. It was not touching any part of the land inside the crease. When LED stump burns, it means that it is out. The bat was never in the crease, it is almost out.

On the other hand, former England captain Charlut Edwards said on this matter, ‘You have to be quite calm. This is really difficult when many decisions have to go to the third umpire. The result of the game is visible on the big screen. This is very difficult. I have played the game and have been around the game to know this. This is a game and we just have to move forward.

Former RCB coach also gave a statement

Former RCB team head coach Mike Hessen also tweeted on X, giving his reaction on the decisions of the third umpire, saying that it is not certain that tonight the umpire decided why the Ginjar Bells will not apply? Once when the light of Bells was burnt, the connection broke and the wicket broke! He is in the game position! Have seen more confusion in the last 10 minutes than before.
