Virat Kohli No-Ball Controversy: Navjot Singh Sidhu made a 2-minute video for Virat Kohli, told that tomorrow the bowler will hit him on the head…
Sidhu also posted a 2-minute video on social media regarding Virat Kohli No-Ball Controversy and explained in full details why Virat was not out. Virat Kohli No-Ball Controversy Navjot Singh Sidhu on Virat Kohli No-Ball Controversy: In the 36th match of IPL 2024, Royal Challengers Bangalore lost by 1 run against Kolkata Knight Riders. But this match is more in discussion about Virat Kohli’s no-ball controversy than RCB’s defeat. Actually, Virat Kohli was caught on a full toss ball by Harshit Rana in the third over. Let us tell you that the ball was above his waist height. Kohli believed that the ball had landed above his waist, and it should be called a no ball. Virat Kohli immediately took DRS, and the third umpire resorted to the Hawk Eye system. According to the umpire, Kohli had gone beyond the crease, hence he was declared out. Virat had scored 18 runs on 7 balls before getting out. Virat Kohli was very angry with this decision and he even argued with the umpire on this matter. After this scandal, everyone was waiting for the opinion of experts as to what will happen. Is Kohli out or not? Many veterans expressed their views but former Indian cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has opened a front in support of Virat Kohli regarding the umpires and the rules made. While doing live commentary on Star Sports, Sidhu had given the statement that “I say with a heavy heart that Kohli was not out”. Now Sidhu also posted a 2-minute video on social media regarding Virat Kohli No-Ball Controversy and explained in full details why Virat was not out. Navjot Singh Sidhu said in this video in support of Virat Kohli- ‘friends! Justice means milk of milk and water of water. I am hurt. Not only for Virat Kohli, but also for RCB. When you came up with a height rule and made a rule, did you see that he (Kohli) was standing on his toes 6 inches higher. Did you give him an allowance of 7 inches while measuring his height? This is the first thing. Navjot Singh Sidhu cornered the bowlers regarding beamer (full toss ball higher than waist) ‘The biggest thing. You legalized beamer. In my times, when the ball accidentally left the bowler’s hand and came above the base line and the batsman was stunned, the bowler raised both his hands and apologized. But tomorrow if someone jumps and hits him (the bowler) on the head, he will not apologise. Are you legalizing beamer? How did this ball dip two feet? ‘And the third thing. Point of impact. When the ball hits the bat, it is one-and-a-half feet above the baseline and he (Kohli) is six inches outside the crease. What do you mean that the ball went forward one foot and dipped two feet? When in doubt, the batter should get the benefit. “Whether I have been a cricketer or an MP. I’ve seen laws change for the better. Rules and regulations are not made just for change, but for…
