After this, the ruckus started. The umpire declared him out, while Kohli was not happy with the decision. He took a review. Expressing anger, he started arguing with the umpire. Virat believed that the ball was above the waist, so a no ball should have been given, but the third umpire declared this ball valid and gave Kohli out. After this, Virat Kohli hit the ground with his bat while going towards the dressing room, for which Virat Kohli was later fined 50 percent of his match fee. Now after that controversy, Virat Kohli and Harshit Rana are face to face for the first time. Both will be seen playing for India in the ODI series.

Mohammed Shami gave a befitting reply to Inzamam-ul-Haq’s ball tampering comment against Arshdeep Singh
Inzamam-ul-Haq had accused Arshdeep Singh of ball tampering during the T20 World Cup. Mohammed Shami and Inzamam-Ul-Haq (Image Credit- Twitter Indian cricket team’s star fast bowler Mohammed Shami has given a befitting reply to the statement of former Pakistan player and captain Inzamam-ul-Haq, when he accused Arshdeep Singh of ball tampering during the T20 World Cup 2024. Let us tell you that in the ICC T20 World Cup, Indian bowler Arshdeep Singh was bowling a lot of swing in the match against Australia on June 24, then Inzamam had made this allegation on a Pakistani cricket talk show. But now through an interview, Shami has given a befitting reply to Inzamam. Mohammad Shami gave a befitting reply to Inzamam-ul-Haq Let us tell you that recently while talking on Shubhankar Mishra’s YouTube channel, Mohammed Shami said- Obviously I got a different kind of ball in the World Cup, I even said in an interview that I will cut the ball one day. Actually, the Player of the Match (POTM) ball is still with me. Another person commented on how Arshdeep has managed to reverse swing the ball. Shami further said- I have only one thing to say to Inzamam-ul-Haq, if you can do this, then you are a magician, but when others do it, you call it ball tampering. It is unexpected and when a player of his stature makes such a comment, he should not make this cartoon comment for anyone. There is no magic needed to reverse swing the ball. You just need to bowl with the right technique. It is worth noting that when Inzamam made this allegation on the Indian bowlers, captain Rohit Sharma had said that there is a need to open the mind a little about how the ball swings. So after this Inzamam had said that don’t teach us how the ball swings.
