Sri Lanka is currently on tour to Bangladesh for all format series. Charith Asalanka (Photo Source: Twitter) Bangladesh cricket team has appointed Charith Asalanka as the stand-in captain of the team for the first two T20 matches against Bangladesh. It is noteworthy that currently the regular captain of Sri Lanka team, Wanindu Hasaranga will not be able to take part in the first two T20 matches against Bangladesh due to the ban. Let us tell you that Hasaranga has been banned for two matches for on-field conduct. Some time ago, he had protested against the umpire giving no ball to a ball going above the waist at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, after which the ICC has banned him for two matches. According to ICC rules related to ban, if a player gets four or more demerit points within two years, then these points are converted into a match ban. So in the absence of Wanindu Hasarga, Sri Lanka Cricket Board has added Jeffrey Vandersay to the team as his replacement. Jeffrey was last seen playing for Sri Lanka in the T20 format in February 2022. So far, Sri Lanka has played 14 matches, in which he has taken a total of 7 wickets. Along with this, Pathum Nissanka has also not fully recovered from his hamstring injury, after which the team has added Avishka Fernando to the team as Nissanka’s replacement.

Sri Lankan team for T20 series Wanindu Hasaranga, Charithasalanka, Kusal Mendis, Sadira Samarawickrama, Angelo Mathews, Dasun Shanaka, Mahesh Teekshana, Dhananjay de Silva, Kusal Zenith Perera, Dilshan Madushanka, Nuwan Thushara, Mathisha Pathirana, Akila Dhananjay, Binura Fernando, Kamindu Mendis, Avishka Fernando, Jeffrey Vandersay.
Amidst the discussion about HawkEye after Joe Root was given out LBW in the ongoing Test series against India, its founder gave a big statement.
Joe Root was disappointed after being given out LBW in the second innings of the fourth Test in Ranchi. Joe Root (Image Credit- Twitter X) Currently a five-match Test series is being played between India and England. So, after English player Joe Root was out LBW in the fourth Test match of this series, there was a lot of discussion about Hawk-Eye and Decision Review System (DRS). Let us tell you that in this Test match held in Ranchi, in the 17th over of England’s second innings, Root missed one of Ashwin’s balls, on which Ashwin appealed, but this appeal was rejected by on-field umpire Kumar Dharmasena. However, after this, on Ashwin’s appeal, captain Rohit took DRS review and in Hawk Eye it was found that some part of the ball was hitting the stump along with the line of the wicket. So after this the on-field umpire’s decision was changed, and Root was given out. So, after the end of this match, England captain Ben Stokes was seen being very vocal about the umpire’s call in DRS and in the cricket world, Hawk-Eye, the technology that helps the third umpire in DRS, got embroiled in a lot of controversies. However, now amidst all this, the creator of this technology, Paul Hawkins, has given a big statement. Paul Hawkins gave a big statement regarding Hawk-Eye Let us tell you that amidst these discussions, while talking on ‘The Analyst’ podcast, Hawkins said – To get an accurate decision, first of all you measure the width of the stump on every day of Test cricket, and then whether the ball is in line or not. After this a straight line is formed. This line is very important (which is outside the route). In tennis sometimes you have zero millimeter margin in or out of the line. But there is a rule in tennis that it is not given out until zero margin is achieved. Tennis we just mark bounce marks for this. But only after showing zero millimeter as 1 millimeter, we will be able to show the impact to the audience. It may sound like a bit of a presentation, but it makes a lot of things clear to the audience. If the ball had not come out after falling it would have been more obvious on TV. So you can see more clearly above the line, which automatically happens when the ball is pitched outside the leg stump. We gave the correct answer as per the rules. But after all this we have an opportunity to improve our presentation and things related to it.
