The game is over with Mandhana! (PC-PTI)
India vs Australia Semi Final: There was a lot of controversy over a decision in the semi-final match between India and Australia. There was controversy regarding the wicket of Smriti Mandhana who was out after scoring 24 runs against Australia. Mandhana’s wicket fell on the ball of Kim Garth in the 10th over. The interesting thing is that Mandhana felt as if she was not out at all, but when the third umpire’s decision came, the ground slipped from under her feet. Let us now tell you what is the matter?
The game is done with Mandhana
Mandhana was batting excellently against Australia. One six and two fours had already come off his bat but then something happened in the 10th over which no one would have expected. Mandhana tried to play the ball going outside Garth’s leg stump at fine leg and the umpire gave the ball wide. But from behind the wicket the Australian captain and wicketkeeper Alyssa Healy Made a strong appeal. According to him, the ball had hit Mandhana’s bat. He asked bowler Garth about this but he too did not feel the same. However, Healy took DRS and then something happened which shocked even Mandhana. When the third umpire checked the snicko meter, the ball had taken the edge of Mandhana’s bat and after that she was given out.
Mandhana could not believe it
Mandhana was not ready to accept the fact that the ball had touched her bat. Even when DRS was called for, she was very confident that the ball was far away from her bat, although the decision came against her. Let us tell you that Mandhana once again failed in the knock out match. This is the sixth time that she has failed in the knockout match of an ICC tournament. Mandhana has played a total of 6 knockout matches in her career in which she has never been able to score even a half-century. His average in these matches is less than 13.
