The Indian Premier League (IPL) is known for its electrifying atmosphere, and the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on April 12 was no exception. In a moment that will be etched in the memories of cricket fans, Shreyas Iyer’s frustration to the umpire came to the fore.
The incident occurred during the 4th over of the match when Glenn Maxwell and Prabhsimran Singh decided to review a caught behind decision. The umpire went straight away towards the third umpire without asking Iyer’s approval for the review. The Punjab captain’s reaction was swift and sharp, as he exclaimed, “Abbe mujhse toh pucho DRS ka.”
The exchange highlighted the intensity of the game, where split-second decisions can significantly impact the outcome. Iyer’s reaction underscored the importance of communication in high-pressure situations.
