Rishabh Pant Controversial Out Today by Third Umpire Wrong Decision Bat hits pad first vs Newzealand | Rishabh Pant Wrong Decision Today by TV Umpire : Friends, today there was a huge controversy over Rishabh Pant's dismissal when the third umpire declared him out. This decision came at a time when Pant was single-handedly trying to lead India to victory, as all other players had returned to the pavilion one by one. However, Pant played a remarkable innings, scoring 64 runs off just 57 balls. But when Team India was just 41 runs away from victory, Azaz Patel made an appeal for a catch against Pant. The field umpire had initially given him not out, but New Zealand used DRS, and the third umpire then declared Pant out. #rishabhpant #indvsnz #cricket

Pant was seen repeatedly explaining to the on-field umpire that when the spike appeared on the ultra-edge, his bat had actually touched his pads, not the ball. However, the umpires paid no heed to Pant's explanation. The third umpire believed that, even if Pant's bat had first hit his pads, the ball later made contact with the edge of his bat before reaching the keeper. This was the reason Pant was declared out. Pant was so disappointed with this decision that he didn’t even feel like leaving the field.
