New MCC Rule That May Have Helped Virat Kohli Score His 48th ODI Ton - Explained
Virat Kohli slammed a brilliant century to guide the Indian cricket team to a comfortable victory over Bangladesh in the Cricket World Cup 2023 on Thursday but a controversial decision by umpire Richard Kettleborough became a major talking point after the match. With Kohli batting on 97 and India needing two runs to win, Bangladesh bowler Nassum Ahmed fired a delivery towards the leg stump. Kohli shuffled a bit towards the stumps and the wicket-keeper collected it on the leg side. However, the umpire decided to not award a wide to India and instead, the delivery was judged to be a dot ball.
