WPL 2024: John Lewis is not at all happy with Chamari Atapattu’s controversial out, gave a big statement
After the fall of Chamari Atapattu’s wicket, UP Warriors could not make a comeback in the match and lost. WPL 2024 (Pic Source-Twitter) In the Women’s Premier League 2024 match played on March 4, Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated UP Warriors by 23 runs. In this match, the players of Royal Challengers Bangalore performed very well and played an important role in the victory of their team. UP Warriors needed 199 runs to win this match. On behalf of UP team, openers Alyssa Healy and Kiran Navgire gave a very good start to their team. However, Chamari Atapattu became the victim of a controversial umpiring during the match. Not only this, after the wicket of Chamari Atapattu fell, UP Warriors could not make a comeback in the match and lost. In fact, during the batting of UP Warriors, when the team’s score was 63/2 after 7 overs, the LBW decision of Chamari Atapattu in Georgia Wareham’s over went to the third umpire where he gave out the experienced batsman. UP Warriors captain Alyssa Healy was not at all happy with this decision of the third umpire because she felt that the ball had spun a lot and it might not hit the stumps in the end. Actually, when it was seen in Hawk-Eye, it was visible that the ball was hitting the stumps. No player of the UP team was happy with the decision of the third umpire. Now UP Warriors team coach John Lewis has given his stand regarding this. We were very disappointed to see this: John Lewis In the press conference after the end of the match, John Lewis said, ‘You saw with the naked eye that the ball had fallen on the line. After this the ball spun and if the leg spinner’s ball is spinning then it will not hit the stumps. But in the end we saw the ball hitting the stumps. I didn’t understand this at all. Chamari Atapattu is a very quality batsman and when right-handed and left-handed batsmen play together, it definitely puts pressure on the other team. That’s why we chose Chamari Atapattu. One thing was also that the boundary on one side of the ground was small and this would have helped both the batsmen a lot. I don’t know much about this technology but we all were very sad with this decision.
