“ They left it like that ”: Ambati Rayudu says that the rope was pushed before taking Suryakumar Yadav WC taking

More than a year after the dramatic final victory of India at the T20 2024 World Cup on South Africa, the former striker and commentator Ambati Rayudi aroused new controversy – admitting that the limit rope was accidentally offset before the play of David Miller of Suryakumar Yadav.

Speaking on the non -filtered podcast, Rayudu revealed that a chair and a screen placed for diffusion purposes during a break led to the boundary rope pushed to the oval of Kensington. The equipment was then removed, but the rope was not returned to its original position.

“There were commentators in the world of flows.” But they left it like that. This is how the border has become a little larger for us. We could see him from above. It was God’s plan. “

The revelation revives the debate on one of the most controversial moments in the final. The acrobatic border of Suryakumar Yadav to reject Miller turned the trend in favor of India. At the time, the reruns showed the ball traveling dangerously near the boundary rope, which aroused concerns about the legality of the dismissal.

When asked if it would have been a six if the rope had been in its original position, Rayudu replied: “Maybe Surya would have sank from the inside.” However, he stood under the result: “It was a clean catch. End of the day, God was with us.”

Suryakumar himself offered a non-binding response during the post-match interview, saying: “I don’t know if it was a six or not.”

Although the incident launched a repression of current and former cricket players at the time, the controversy faded following the victory of the title of India. Rayudi’s comments, however, provide a renewed examination to the way in which such technical shortcomings can influence the moments defining the matches.

India beat South Africa in a biting final to remove its second T20 World Cup title.
