It was an unusual runout, as both of the batters, Axar Patel and Tilak Varma, were casually walking on the pitch when the opposing team went for the run out. Both of the batters thought the ball might have touched the boundary line, so they were taking their time in the middle, out from their creases.
The ball was still in play as the Caribbean fielder, Kamil Pooran, threw his body to restrict the ball from touching the rope. He collected the ball and relayed it to Shai Hope and Gudakesh Motie, who caught Tilak completely off guard.
Tilak Varma on his bizarre run-out in India vs West Indies 3rd T20I
Tilak Varma, in his clarification, mentioned that he and Axar Patel thought the ball touched the ropes and the ball was dead. He had barely any idea when the West Indies cricketers were putting in efforts to run out either him or Axar. Axar went back to his crease in time as he had a better view on that side of the ground, but for Tilak Varma, it was a blank spot; he did not have that position to understand whether the ball was still in play.
India could claim the series tonight in Hyderabad
The bizarre runout, however, did not spoil Team India's party in Indore as they defeated the visitors by 14 runs to take a 2-1 lead in the ongoing series. With Abhishek Sharma's power-packed 69 off 30, India scored 223 runs in the first innings.
West Indies, in reply, registered 209 runs in their 20-over limit. If India wins tonight, then they will take an undisputed 3-1 lead with only one match in hand.
