debate the cause
Yash Thakur was throwing the 17th over. Yash bowled the third ball of this over with a full toss on which David hit a sharp shot. But the ball went to Deepak Hooda standing on long on, who did not make any mistake in catching the catch. But since this ball was a full toss, the on-field umpire sought help from the third umpire. The third umpire saw and gave his decision. The third umpire did not call it a no ball.
Here David started arguing with the umpire. He said that how is this ball not a no ball. He started arguing with the umpire about this. However, the umpire did not listen to him and David had to return to the pavilion. During this, Mumbai coach Mark Boucher was also seen talking to the fourth umpire outside the ground.
Yash Thakur with the big breakthrough!
The dangerous Tim David departs for 13.
