Oszust Australia: Indyjscy fani niezadowoleni ze zwolnienia KL Rahula w pierwszym teście IND vs AUS

IND vs AUS 1st Test:  KL Rahul was the only ray of hope for India as he battled almost all the way through the first session and got himself acclimatized to the conditions. However, the batter was eventually dismissed on a score of 26 off the bowling of Mitchell Starc in a controversial decision by the Third Umpire. 

A delivery from Starc went past Rahul’s bat with a distinguishable sound, leaving Aussie players excited, but on-field umpire Richard Illingworth wasn’t interested. The decision was soon reviewed by the Kangaroos, and the third umpire had a close look at the delivery multiple times. 

The reviewed that there was indeed a sound followed a knick on the snickometer as the ball went past Rahul’s bat. However, the ball also seemed to hitting the right hander’s bat almost at the same time, making it hard to draw any conclusions. 

However, the third umpire soon afterwards asked Richard Illingworth to reverse his decision and declared Rahul OUT. Almost instantly, the call did not sit well with users on social media and even the Australian commentators who questioned if there was enough evidence to overturn the on-field call.
