DC vs KXIP: FULL SCORECARD
The incident took place in the 19th over of Kings XI Punjab’s run-chase when Mayank Agarwal played a shot and took two runs. However, the on-field umpire Nitin Menon deemed it as a single, declaring that Chris Jordan did not tap his bat past the crease.
Both the teams scored 157 runs in the allotted 20 overs and Delhi Capitals won the match in the Super Over.
Former India batsman Virender Sehwag, who himself has represented Kings XI Punjab in the league, said the umpire’s call made the difference in the match and he should be ‘Man of the Match’.
“I don’t agree with the man of the match choice. The umpire who gave this short run should have been man of the match. Short Run nahin tha. And that was the difference. #DCvKXIP,” Sehwag tweeted.
