MUMBAI : Jos Buttler scored another Twenty20 century to power Rajasthan Royals to the top of the Indian Premier League table but Friday's 15-run win over Delhi Capitals was overshadowed by farcical protests over an umpiring decision in the final over.
The IPL 2022 clash between Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals descended into complete chaos on Friday over on-field umpires' decision to not give a no-ball for a waist-high full-toss. Delhi Capitals players and support staff were convinced that it was no-ball but the umpires didn't budge and it resulted in chaotic scenes with tensions threatening to boil over. DC captain Rishabh Pant was seen gesticulating at his two batters to walk off the field while assistant coach Pravin Amre entered the field of play to speak to the on-field umpires.
Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals clash on Friday as the dramatic events overshadowed an epic 15-run Royals victory. And at the centre of the ugly scenes were the on-field umpires -- Nitin Menon and Nikhil Patwardhan, who faced the wrath of the Delhi Capitals outfit and the fans inside the stadium for what looked like a no ball gaffe. The final-over no ball controversy that shook the cricketing world last night is now officially the first major controversy of the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League.
A disappointed Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant said the third umpire should have "interfered" to check for a possible waist-high no-ball in the dramatic final over of their IPL match against Rajasthan Royals as it proved "precious" for his team. Pant had called back his batters -- Rovman Powell and Kuldeep Yadav -- after the umpires did not check the delivery for a possible no-ball in the last over as DC lost the match by 15 runs.
Rajasthan Royals' (RR) Skipper Sanju Samson said that the umpire's refusal to check a no-ball in the final over of their thrilling match against Delhi Capitals (DC) was very clear and he stuck to his decision. Jos Buttler's 116-run knock and Prasidh Krishna's three-wicket haul (3 for 22) helped Rajasthan (222 for 2) beat Delhi (207 for 8) by 15 runs in a high-scoring match at the Wankhede Stadium. With 36 runs needed in the last six balls, DC batter Rovman Powell hit sixes off the first two balls of the over bowled by left-arm pacer Obed McCoy. On the third ball, he again hit a full toss for a maximum and that delivery, according to Delhi Capitals' captain Rishabh Pant and their team management, should have been called a no-ball.
Rajasthan Royals (RR) defeated Delhi Capitals (DC) by 15 runs on Friday in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Jos Buttler was in hot form, smacking his fourth IPL ton and third of the season as he played a knock of 116 runs off 65 balls to help RR post 222 for two in 20 overs. Chasing a target of 223 runs, Delhi could only reach 207 for eight in 20 overs as Prasidh Krishna bagged three wickets for Rajasthan.
IPL 2022 produced yet another thrilling contest as Rajasthan Royals took on Delhi Capitals at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Friday. Rajasthan Royals emerged victorious by 15 runs with Jos Buttler hitting his third century of the ongoing season. But the match made headlines for all the wrong reasons as emotions threatened to boil over after umpires didn't give what Delhi Capitals players and support staff thought was a waist-high no-ball. The match descended into complete farce as DC captain Rishabh Pant gesticulated wildly at the umpires. At one point, it even seemed that Pant was asking the two batters at the crease -- Rovman Powell and Kuldeep Yadav -- to return to the dug out. One of DC's assistant coaches Pravin Amre even stormed the field to speak to the umpires.
Rajasthan Royals defeated Delhi Capitals by 15 runs on Friday at Wankhede Stadium but the match became a huge talking point over what transpired in the final over of the game when Delhi needed 36 to win. Rovman Powell smashed three sixes off the first three balls, but the third delivery of the over was a full toss and Delhi Capitals camp thought it was an over-the-waist no-ball. After it was not called by the on-field officials and when they did not refer it to the third umpire, Delhi Capitals' assistant coach Pravin Amre walked out to the pitch to have a word with the umpires.
