However, Mark Nicholas has not announced the names of the IPL teams that have shown mild interest in taking a stake in this team. But this stake will be bid by the franchise and the remaining 51 percent stake will remain with the London Spirit franchise, due to which the ownership of the franchise will also remain with the team.

India vs England, 1st Test (Image Credit- Twitter X) IND vs ENG 1st Test: The first match of the five-match Test series between India and England is being played in Hyderabad. So today, on 27th January, something happened on the field in the game, which left the cricket world quite shocked. Let us tell you that in the match, the decision given by the umpire to give out LBW of Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja on 87 runs was quite controversial. The incident occurred during the 120th over of the Indian innings, when Jadeja tried to play a ball round the wicket bowled by Joe Root by taking out his front leg. But during this time the ball hits his pad and on Root’s appeal, on-field umpire Chris Gaffney gives Ravindra Jadeja out. After this Jadeja reviews this decision. So when the replay of this out is seen by the third umpire, there is no concrete evidence as to whether the ball hit the pad or the bat first. Also the impact was umpire’s call. So the third umpire Marais Erasmus can be heard saying during this decision that he is not finding out whether the ball has hit the bat first or not. However, after this the third umpire is asked to uphold the on-field umpire’s decision. After this, Jadeja misses scoring his century by just 13 runs. Know what the MCC rules say However, after this controversial LBW out of Jadeja, cricket fans became curious to know what the rules say about getting out like this. So for your information, let us tell you that MCC (Marylebone Cricket Club) is the body that makes rules regarding cricket. According to Rule 36.2.2 related to LBW out, if during LBW out any such situation is found in which the ball hits the bat and the pad simultaneously, then in this situation it will be considered to have hit the bat first. But the decision to give Ravindra Jadeja out was not changed, because he had already been given out by the on-field umpire. In case of confusion, the decision of the on-field umpire remains final.
