Aakash Chopra questions umpire's decision
Since Holder was still moving and sliding, the cricket pundit believes that the catch was not properly completed, and he openly said that the umpire made a “mistake” in his judgment.
The commentator added, “Jason Holder took the catch and slid. When you are sliding, your body is still in motion, and it is not in complete control. When he was sliding, the ball had touched the ground, and the ball wasn't dead by then. The catch had not been completed. I felt the umpire made a mistake there. It should have been given out, not in.”
Aakash Chopra orders RCB to continue their aggressive style
Despite having an explosive batting unit, the RCB bowled out for just 155 runs in 19.2 overs, with Arshad Khan starring with the three-wicket haul at the Narendra Modi Stadium. In reply, Gujarat Titans chased down the target inside 16 overs to win the match by 4 wickets on April 30.
He signed off by saying, “This might happen with the SunRisers Hyderabad someday, where you are scoring 250 runs, and a 125-run match might come someday. That is a possibility. When you take so much risk, this could be a side effect at times. They will have to forget this game and just continue in their own merry way, because they are playing well. I actually liked Devdutt Padikkal's inning.”
