The Suryakumar Yadav-led India and Charith Asalanka-led Sri Lanka locked horns at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Friday, September 26.
After 40 overs, the match entered the Super Over, where Arshdeep Singh showed his class and dismissed two Sri Lankan batters for just 2 runs, and India won the match on their first ball of the Super Over.
On the fourth ball of the over, Arshdeep Singh bowled a yorker-length delivery outside off-stump to Dasun Shanaka, who tried to dig it, but missed, and the ball went past the outside edge.
This was because the on-field umpire actually gave out caught behind, and once the umpire makes his decision, the ball becomes dead; hence, the runout wasn't considered.

"Since it has been given out caught behind, and reviewed, the ball is dead and umpire Gazi Sohel makes his point known to team India. first decision always stands and when it is given out by the umpire at the bowler's end, the ball is dead and that's why Shanaka escapes from being run out.," the former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan wrote on X.
