India are playing the Black Caps in their first group-stage match in Dubai. Amid the match, there has already been a moment of controversy which made the Indian camp disgruntled.
In the 14th over, Amelia Kerr was run out as Harmanpreet Kaur inflicted her demise with a magnificent throw.
The New Zealand batter also started to head back to the hut after her dismissal, but was later called back by the umpires.
IND-W vs NZ-W: Why was Amelia Kerr called back by Umpires?
The umpires called Amelia Kerr back, much to the disappointment of the entire Indian women's team. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur was visibly unhappy, whereas India coach Amol Muzumdar was also not satisfied and had an intense chat with the fourth umpire.
But the reason Amelia was brought back was explained as a dead-ball situation. Upon picking up the ball, Harmanpreet Kaur was running in as it was the end of the over.
But seeing the Black Caps players taking a second, she fired the ball to the wicketkeeper and Kerr was run out.
But the umpires had already called over even before New Zealand took the second run, much to the surprise of many.
