Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2024: The second semi-final match of the ACC Men’s T20 Emerging Teams Asia Cup was played between India A and Afghanistan A on Friday, October 25.
Let us tell you that in the match played at Al Emirates Cricket Ground in UAE, India A had to face defeat by 20 runs in a close match. So after this defeat, India is out of the tournament. On the other hand, after a DRS decision during the match, there was a mid-field controversy.
This moment was seen in the match when Zubaid Akbari was not out. Coming to bat first, Afghanistan A made a great start to the game and their opening batsmen performed brilliantly. Akbari scored 64 runs in 41 balls. In the match, a ball bowled by Akhib Khan took a slight edge from Akbari’s bat and fell into the hands of Prabhsimran Singh behind the wicket.
The Indian player appealed after taking the catch, but the on-field umpire’s initial decision was not out. Seeing this decision, India A players lodged a strong protest as it was out.
It is worth noting that there was no DRS available in this clash, hence India A players could not challenge the umpire’s decision. So in the end Team India had to face defeat in this match by 20 runs.
Ramandeep Singh played a struggling innings
On the other hand, if we tell you the condition of this match, Afghanistan A, after winning the toss and batting first, scored 206 runs at the loss of 4 wickets in 20 overs. For the team, opener Zubaid Akbari played an inning of 64 runs and Sadiullah Atal played an inning of 83 runs.
So when India set out to chase this target, it could score only 186 runs at the loss of 7 wickets in 20 overs, and lost the match by 20 runs in a closely contested match. Ramandeep played a brilliant inning of 64 runs in 34 balls for India, but it could not save the team from defeat.
AUS vs IND 2024-25: Umpire Simon Taufel made special comment on KL Rahul’s controversial DRS out in Perth Test
There is a special discussion in the cricket world regarding Rahul’s dismissal. Australia vs India, 1st Test (Image Credit- Twitter X) India is facing Australia in the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series from November 22 at the Optus Stadium in Perth. In the match, stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah has won the toss and decided to bat first, which has not proved right for the team. However, there is a lot of discussion in the cricket world about the way experienced batsman KL Rahul was out in the match. After defending a lot of the ball, Rahul was slowly building his innings, but he was unfortunately given out in the 23rd over of the Indian innings. Mitchell Starc came to bowl this over of the Indian innings for Australia and in this over, he bowled the second ball of length to Rahul, which went very close to the bat. During this, other players including the bowler appealed, but the onfield umpire did not give the player out. But during this, captain Pat Cummins took DRS review and the third umpire gave Rahul out. But in UltraEdge it was clearly seen that the ball had hit the pad saved from the bat. On the other hand, now experienced umpire Simon Taufel has reacted to Rahul’s DRS out. Simon Taufel reacts to Rahul’s DRS out Let us tell you that Simon Taufel, while discussing with 7 Cricket about Rahul’s dismissal in the Perth Test, said – We saw in that side on shot that there was a spike on the RTS and the bat was away from the pad, in other words the bat. The lower part did not reach the pad. So rotating it in its natural course, you would have seen the second spike (on the sneako, to indicate the bat hitting the pad) come in more than if it had been rotated all the way. So former cricketer Matthew Hayden, who was commenting during this time, said – We are assuming that (Snikko) could be the outer edge of the bat, but it cannot be so. Well, the umpire’s decision is the final decision, and the player cannot protest against it. Due to this decision of the umpire, Rahul had to return to the pavilion after being out on the score of 26 runs in 74 balls.
