#2 Malinga’s no-ball (RCB vs MI)

However, the equation became such that RCB needed 17 runs in the final over and Shivam Dube smashed a six on the very first ball of the over to Lasith Malinga. But they failed to score another boundary in the over requiring 7 on the last ball. Malinga bowled a full toss on middle and Dube smashed it to long-on and Mumbai hung in there to clinch a thriller.

However, in the replays, it was clearly seen that the last ball of the match should have been called as a no-ball by the umpire, which would have meant a free-hit. That’s a terrible miss from the umpire. RCB players aren’t pleased.

Talking about the same after the game, Virat said,

“We are playing at the IPL level, it’s not club level, the umpires should have their eyes open. That was a big no-ball.” And Rohit said, “Honestly, I just go to know after crossing the rope that it was a no-ball. These kind of mistakes aren’t good for the game.”
