The India vs. Oman match witnessed an extraordinary incident involving Kuldeep Yadav. After his stellar performance in the Asia Cup, Kuldeep was seen compelling captain Suryakumar Yadav to take a DRS. The bowler physically took hold of the captain’s hand to signal for a review. This tactic is rarely seen in cricket. The incident occurred in the 9th over when Kuldeep appealed for an LBW against Aamir Kaleem, but the umpire’s decision was not out. Despite Suryakumar’s initial reluctance, Kuldeep persisted and the review was taken. The review was unsuccessful. Despite the failed review, Kuldeep later took a wicket, bowling out Oman’s captain, Jatinder Singh. Kuldeep faced pressure in his third over, giving away 15 runs, with Hamad Mirza hitting two consecutive sixes. India had earlier scored 188 runs in their 20 overs, with notable contributions from Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma.
