Rishabh
pant asks for an apology to Mohammad Siraj..!?
The first Test match between
india and
bangladesh is taking place at Chennai's
chepauk Stadium. Jadeja and Ashwin played brilliantly to rescue the
indian team from the slump when
india stumbled by losing their wicket on the first day's match.
indian team added 376 runs in the first innings. Next, the
bangladesh team started batting in the first innings. Then
bumrah and
akash Deep started hunting for wickets. Mohammad Siraj bowled to
bangladesh batsman Zakir Hasan. The ball grazed his leg.
mohammed siraj was celebrating as the ball went straight and it was sure to be lbw out. But the umpire did not give out.
Can we ask the third umpire for a
review then? As asked by wicketkeeper
rishabh pant,
mohammed siraj, and captain Rohit Sharma. Then
rishabh pant said, "The ball went too high. Also, the ball went in the leg direction." So, captain
rohit sharma decided not to ask for a review. In the next few minutes, a replay of that ball was shown on the big screen at the stadium. Then it turned out to be lbw out. After this
mohammed siraj looked at
rishabh Pant. Rishab
pant raised both his hands and apologized to him.
rohit sharma smiled at that.
Then Zakir Hasan was bowled by
akash Deep. Mohammad Siraj conceded 30 runs and took 2 wickets in 10.1 overs. Rishabh's
pant mistake cost him another wicket.
bumrah had taken four wickets. Jadeja took two wickets.
bangladesh were all out for 149 runs in the first innings. At the end of the second day's play,
india scored 81 runs and lost 3 wickets in the second innings.
india is expected to score more runs and declare the match on the third day. The fans are hoping that
rishabh pant who is in the field should not make mistakes like he did in the first innings and score big runs in the second innings.
