The row started after Deepti Sharma’s controversial attempt of ‘Mankading’ the English women cricketer Charlotte Dean was not over yet and another controversy started after the run-out of senior Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell in the eighth over of the match.

It all started when Glenn Maxwell was running toward the wicketkeeper’s end, and Axar Patel threw the ball toward the wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik. The bail was still on the stumps and unfortunately, the ball went on to hit the same bail. Finally, the TV umpire declared him run-out.

Although, this decision didn’t go down well with the fans and they started trolling the umpiring standards alongside the Indian cricket board.

Speaking of the match, then the opening pair of skipper Aaron Finch and Cameron Green provided a good start of 44 runs for the first wicket in only 3.3 overs. Green smashed a brilliant half-century knock of 52 runs off just 21 balls with seven boundaries and three sixes to his name.

Other than him, young batter Tim David also scored a blistering 54 runs off just 27 balls with two boundaries and four sixes on his credit.

On the backs of these brilliant knocks, the visitors have posted a decent total of 186 runs for the loss of seven wickets in the allotted 20 overs. Axar Patel ended up as the highest wicket-taker for India as he scalped three wickets by conceding 33 runs in his quota of four overs. Other than him, Yuzvendra Chahal, Harshal Patel, and senior pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar also scalped one wicket each.
