Adam Gilchrist believes that Rishabh Pant should have been fined for his long conversation with the field umpire during the match played against Lucknow Super Giants.
Former Australian wicketkeeper batsman Adam Gilchrist believes that Rishabh Pant should have been fined for his long conversation with the field umpire during the match played against Lucknow Super Giants. Let us tell you, Lucknow Super Giants played a match against Delhi Capitals on 12 April. Delhi Capitals won this match.
In the fourth over of Lucknow’s innings, Delhi team’s fast bowler Ishant Sharma bowled a wide. The field umpire gave it wide but Rishabh Pant asked for a review. It was seen in the replay that it was a wide ball. However, Rishabh Pant was not at all happy with this decision of the third umpire and was seen arguing with the field umpire for a long time. Adam Gilchrist presented his side regarding this.
Speaking on Cricbuzz, Adam Gilchrist said, ‘Today I saw another example where it is very important for the umpire to take control of the match. To take the game forward they should do their work well. There was a lot of debate about whether Rishabh had asked for a review or not. But three to four minutes of the match were wasted due to this matter.
I think it was a very simple conversation and it doesn’t matter what Rishabh is demanding or what other players are saying about it but the umpire should have said that it is all over now and Let’s move forward in the match. But if he had kept talking continuously then he should definitely have been fined.
