Watch: Questionable On-Field Umpiring In South Africa vs Bangladesh 1st Test, Fans Unhappy

Bangladesh lost the 1st Test of the two-match series against South Africa by 220 runs on Monday after Keshav Maharaj took seven wickets in the fourth and final innings. The visitors were bundled out for 53 and as a result, the Proteas gained a massive victory. However, the attention has been taken away from Maharaj's performance and Bangladesh fans took to Twitter to express their disappointment after some on-field calls went against them in South Africa's second innings.

In South Africa's second innings, Bangladesh made quite a few LBW appeals and some of them were very close with the replays showing the ball to be hitting the stumps. In the 19th over of the innings, Bangladesh had managed to get Adrian Holdstock's not-out decision overturned to dismiss Sarel Erwee.

Then in the 26th over, pacer Khaled Ahmed had an LBW decision going against him with Keegan Petersen on strike. Bangladesh did not opt for a review and replays showed that it would have hit the stumps.

Former Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan also took to Twitter to express his disappointment with the on-field umpiring from Adrian Holdstock and Marais Erasmus. "I think it's time for #Icc to back to neutral umpires as covid situation is ok in most cricket playing countries. #SAvBAN," Shakib had tweeted on Sunday.

A Bangladesh fan compiled a video of decisions going against Bangladesh and he captioned the post as One-sided umpiring in #Durban #Southafrica #SAvsBAN #icc @ICC."
