England, led by Nat Sciver-Brunt, secured a comfortable eight-wicket victory in the rain-affected second ODI, leveling the ongoing three-match series 1-1. The game, disrupted twice by rain, was decided by the DLS method. Notably, the home team chased down the revised target with 18 balls to spare against India.
Beaumont returned to her crease and grounded her left foot. However, she moved her right leg forward, seemingly attempting to deflect the throw. Wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh appealed for obstruction.

Controversy at Lord’s! Did Tammy Beaumont Break the Rules?
While Tammy Beaumont was ruled not out, India had a case for appeal. According to the Laws of Cricket, a batter can still be given out for Obstructing the Field even after returning to the crease, as there is no clause exempting them in such a scenario.
37.1.2 states, "The striker is out Obstructing the field if, except in the circumstances of 37.2, in the act of receiving a ball delivered by the bowler, he/she wilfully strikes the ball with a hand not holding the bat. This will apply whether it is the first strike or a second or subsequent strike. The act of receiving the ball shall extend both to playing at the ball and to striking the ball more than once in defence of his/her wicket."

“I was not in a really good angle, to be fair, probably it was not visible at all. Jemmi definitely felt that maybe she kicked it or something. They referred it, and it was not out, so I'm sure that they should have seen all the angles. That's the only view I have on it,” Mandhana told reporters.
