In the 10th match of IPL 2025 between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam, drama unfolded early in SRH’s innings. After a running mix-up led to Abhishek Sharma’s dismissal in the very first over, another moment of hesitation led Delhi to lose a review for LBW.
Mukesh Kumar, bowling to Ishan Kishan, struck him on the pad with a delivery that pitched outside leg. Despite KL Rahul not being fully convinced, Axar Patel was persuaded by Mukesh to go for the review. Replays showed there was no bat involved, but the ball had clearly pitched outside leg stump, and Delhi burned a review just two overs into the game.
This came shortly after a goof-up in running between the wickets resulted in the run-out of Abhishek Sharma for 1(1), thanks to a direct hit from Vipraj Nigam. It was a clear case of miscommunication and wrong judgment, with both batters caught in hesitation.
