Harmanpreet Kaur Fight Umpire INDW vs NZW T20 World Cup 2024: A very interesting incident happened in the India vs New Zealand match in the Women’s T20 World Cup, in which Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur clashed with the umpires. This case is related to Kiwi batsman Amelia Kerr, who was run out in the 14th over, but was still called back by the umpires. Due to this, Harmanpreet angrily argued with the umpires, due to which the match was stopped for some time.
Deepti Sharma was bowling for India in the 14th over and on the last ball of the over, Amelia Kerr tried to score a single run by pushing the ball towards long-off. Meanwhile, New Zealand players were trying to score the second run when Harmanpreet quickly threw the ball towards wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh. Whereas Richa dived and ran out Kerr. While India was celebrating the run out, Kerr also started returning to the pavilion, but then the umpire called Kerr back.
Harmanpreet was against this decision, so she angrily clashed with the umpires. On the other hand, Team India’s head coach Amul Majumdar was also confused as to what was going on. India’s captain Harmanpreet, vice-captain Smriti Mandhana and the coach were also seen talking to the third umpire on this subject.
