Fans and pundits all across the world erupted after the Third Umpire game out to Suryakumar Yadav even though it wasn?t a fair catch.
Playing his first game for blues, Suryakumar Yadav smacked a breath-taking half-century in style. Yadav sent the ball out of the ground in the very first delivery he faced of Jofra Archer. He completed his half-century in just 11th over however the celebration was cut short by the Third Umpires controversial decision.
Yadav played a scoop off Sam Curran and was caught by Dawid Malan in the fine leg. On-field umpires referred it to the TV Umpire and gave it out as a soft signal. TV Umpire went through the clip many-a-times to get conclusive evidence to overturn the on-field umpire?s decision.
