5. Ishan Kishan dismissal against MI
The former Mumbai Indians (MI) player Ishan Kishan, now representing Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), found himself at the center of confusion during the second face-off between the two teams in Hyderabad. In the match, Deepak Chahar bowled to the left-hander and the ball carried to Ryan Rickelton behind the stumps. Surprisingly, Ishan Kishan began walking off the field even before the on-field umpire had declared him out.
The umpire was seemingly unsure and hesitated by raising the finger half-heartedly, while there was minimal appeal from Hardik Pandya or any of the MI players. While looking at the incident, the UltraEdge technology showed no spike which indicated that there was no contact with the bat. Kishan's decision to walk off without a firm appeal or a proper dismissal created confusion and stirred discussions among fans and experts.
