Mumbai (Sports Desk) Another incident in the Indian Premier League, which has previously faced allegations of fixing, has raised questions over the league’s transparency and credibility.
During a match between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders, a suspicious fielding moment left spectators in the stadium surprised.
In the 10th over, on a delivery by Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya, Rovman Powell attempted a big shot, but the ball took a top edge and went high into the air.
Fielders positioned at deep fine leg and deep square leg ran towards the catch, but surprisingly both players stopped just before reaching the ball and did not attempt to take the catch.
After this incident, different opinions are emerging on social media, while fans have termed the behaviour unusual and raised questions over it.
