IND-W vs NZ-W | Twitter stunned as umpires deny exasperated Harman run-out after dirty Kiwi tactic backfires

Karma is widely celebrated in India as the universe’s way of ensuring justice, and New Zealand nearly got a taste of it on Friday until the umpire intervened, much to Harmanpreet Kaur’s chagrin. The Kiwis tried to sneak an untoward run and lost a wicket thereby, only to be saved by a dead ball call.

‌New Zealand got off to a rolicking start in the T20 World Cup opener against India in Dubai as openers Suzie Bates and Georgia Plimmer racked up 55 runs in the powerplay to put India on the backfoot. However, the Women in Blue turned the game around quickly by dismissing both the batters in the space of four deliveries, and then nearly earned a third shortly after only to be denied in dramatic fashion.

The experienced duo of Amelia Kerr and Sophie Devine sought to stabilize the innings after the two scalps by slowly building their stand past 30 to take the score to 99/2 after 14 overs. Deepti Sharma, having just completed her over with a full delivery that was driven by Kerr for a single to long-on, was walking over to the umpire to take back her hat when the Kiwi batters suddenly started running frantically between the sutmps. Devine had realized that Harmanpreet, the fielder with the ball in hand, was jogging along for the switch of ends and saw it as an opportunity to sneak a clever run but the Indian was alert to the opportunity and fired in an accurate throw at the striker’s end to earn the run-out. However, while the players appealed, the square-leg umpire was comically busy tying her shoelaces before eventually beginning discussions with her counterpart.

Replays showed that the umpires had already called over and thereby handed over the cap to Deepti when the run was being taken, meaning the ball was dead and the run-out did not count. harmanpreet repeatedly try to explain her side to the umpire, as did the coaching staff on the sielines to the fourth official, but unfortunately for her the pleas fell on deaf ears. Nevertheless, karma came back to bit Kerr as she succumbed just two deliveries later, and Harmanpreet let her emotions show with aplomb.
