A contentious moment during the (SRH) vs Rajasthan Royals (RR) match has sparked intense debate among cricket fans. The incident in question involves Maheesh Theekshana’s wicket of Abhishek Sharma, with many questioning whether the Sri Lankan bowler’s foot was behind the line when he delivered the ball.
The controversy unfolded during the SRH innings when Abhishek Sharma was batting. Theekshana, who was bowling for RR, delivered a ball that got the better off Sharma. The SRH batter was caught at cover point by Yashasvi Jaiswal.
However, replays suggested that Theekshana’s foot might not have been behind the line when he delivered the ball, which would have made it a no-ball. Many fans took to social media to express their outrage.
