Lucknow: Sunday night in a tight match Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG vs KKR). KKR beat Lucknow in ‘Super Over’. However, even if KKR wins this match, it is KKR’s batting time Angakrish Raghuvanshi(Angkrish Raghuvanshi) Controversy rages around the out. After a video of the former umpire, the controversy escalated.

Angakrish was run out in the fifth over of the KKR batting innings. Fast bowler Prince Yadav was bowling in the fifth over of the innings for Lucknow. Raghuvanshi wanted to take a run by pushing Prince’s ball to mid-on. But Cameron Greene, who was on non-strike, sent back Raghuvanshi. Raghuvanshi was running back to the crease. Realizing he cannot reach the crease, he dives to save the wicket. The ball thrown by the fielder hits his body and gets stuck.

Mohammed Shami of Lucknow Super Giants appeals against Raghuvanshi for obstructing the field. The field umpires resorted to the third umpire. After watching the replay, the third umpire declared Raghuvanshi out. He was deemed by the umpire to have deliberately run along the line of the ball to prevent the ball from hitting the stumps and was given out as per rules.

However, popular umpire Anil Chaudhary’s claim is that a batter cannot be given out if a throw hits him only after changing the direction and running. In that case, before giving out, it should be seen whether he has changed direction to block the intended ball or not. 131 IPL Anil Chowdhury, who umpired the match, argued that when Angakrish dived and the ball hit him, he was not even looking at the ball, so the argument that he deliberately blocked the ball was not valid. According to him, the way Angakrish ran was very natural and he unfortunately walked into the line of the ball. After Anil’s comments, the controversy surrounding this out increased.

Of course, not only the umpire, but also various experts, but many claimed that Angakrish’s dismissal was a wrong decision. Changing his direction is also very natural. But at the end of the day despite Angakrish’s controversial outing KKR Haddahaddi won the match after a hard fight.
