India A crashed out of the Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2024 at the hands of Afghanistan A in the semi-final, after the Afghans put up a mammoth 206 batting first.

However, despite their sensational first innings, controversy erupted in the middle of the Afghan batting. The opening partnership of 137 runs between Sediqullah Atal and Zubaid Akbari was broken when the latter was given out caught behind.

However, a big row followed, with the Zubaid raising a finger at the umpire, and the Afghanistan coach instructing him to not leave the field.

While initially the umpire had not raised his finger, after a long third umpire check, Zubaid was given out. With no DRS (Decision Review System) available at the Al Amerat Cricket Stadium in Oman, Zubaid was visibly unhappy with the change in decision.
