Amelia Kerr’s runout
IND-W vs NZ-W: The T20 World Cup match is being played between the Indian women’s team and the New Zealand women’s team. During this match, the New Zealand captain won the toss and decided to bowl first. New Zealand made a very good start in this match by batting first and scored 55 runs without losing any wicket during the powerplay. However, as soon as the power play ended, Team India’s bowlers made a brilliant comeback and sent both their opening batsmen to the pavilion. During this time something like this happened with Team India. Seeing this, everyone feels that she is cheating. Due to this, even Team India captain Harmanpreet Kaur and Team India head coach were seen arguing with the umpire.
what was the whole matter
When Team India was looking for the third wicket against New Zealand, Harmanpreet Kaur called Deepti Sharma to bowl. On the last ball of this over, New Zealand batsman Amelia Kerr considered a shot in the direction of log-on and she ran for one run. The ball just went into the hands of Harmanpreet Kaur. After this, Harmanpreet took the ball in her hands and started moving forward. Meanwhile, the New Zealand batsmen tried to run for the second run, but in the meantime, Harmanpreet quickly threw the ball towards the wicketkeeper and the wicketkeeper ran out Amelia Kerr.
Why was Amelia not out?
Even after running out Amelia Kerr, the umpire did not give her out. Actually, Amelia was going towards the pavilion. Only then the match referee stopped him. The reason behind not giving her out was that before Ameria tried to take the second run, the umpire had declared the over completed and during that time Deepti was also seen taking the cap from the umpire. In such a situation, the umpire decided that after the completion of the over, Amelia tried to take it and she was run out. Due to which it was not accepted. However, Renuka Singh dismissed Amelika in the very next over.
