BAN vs SL: Unruly Scene Erupts in Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka Match
In the BAN vs SL match, there was a big argument between the Sri Lankan team and the umpire during the 27th over of Bangladesh’s innings. The issue started because the ball had been replaced four overs earlier, but it had gotten too wet, so the Sri Lankan team wanted a new one. However, the umpire declined their request, which made the Sri Lankan team very angry. They spent a long time discussing the matter with the umpire.
Bangladesh’s captain Shakib Al Hasan was curious about the chat between the umpire and Sri Lankan players. Despite a minor dispute, the Bangladeshi team remained composed as there was no ball change. Kusal Mendis and the Sri Lankan team were briefly upset but eventually resumed their positions.
