Third umpire made mistake... uproar over run out of 3 players of Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians coach Charlotte Edwards is very disappointed with her team's last ball defeat against Delhi Capitals in the Women's Premier League (WPL). She believes that Mumbai's team would not have lost this match if there were no controversial run out decisions.

Taking a dig at this, Edwards said that it is really difficult to understand such decisions which affect the result of the match.

The decisions of the third umpire affected the result of the match.

In the Women's Premier League match played on Saturday, three controversial run out decisions went against Mumbai Indians, taking advantage of which Delhi Capitals team won. Third umpire Gayatri Venugopalan declared three Delhi batsmen Radha Yadav, Arundhati Reddy and Shikha Pandey not out despite the lights of the bails being on. These decisions of the third umpire ultimately had a huge impact on the result of the match.

After Mumbai's close defeat, England's two-time World Cup winning captain Edwards said, "You have to stay very calm. It is really difficult when the help of the third umpire is taken for most of the decisions. Then the result of the match is seen on the big screen.

It is definitely difficult to digest this, but I have been associated with this game for a long time and know that this is a part of the game. We just have to move forward. Our eyes are on the match to be held on Tuesday. "

Former India captain Mithali Raj also said while commentating the match that the decision should have gone in favor of Mumbai in the case of Arundhati and Radha Yadav. RCB's former cricket director Mike Hesson also expressed disbelief in the umpire's decision.
