Facing Daryl Mitchell in the 40th over of the Indian innings, Hardik Pandya was cramped for room when the middle-order batter tried to cut the ball which went to the gloves of wicketkeeper Tom Latham. Moments after Pandya mistimed his shot, one of the bails came off and the New Zealand wicketkeeper appealed for a legitimate bowled dismissal.

After examining the umpire's referral for the bowled dismissal, the third umpire was convinced that Latham didn't disturb the bails and Pandya was bowled by Mitchell. Viewing a series of replays, the third umpire believed that he has gathered enough evidence to adjudge Pandya out in the 40th over. However, Pandya was not the only one who was baffled by the decision as his dismissal sparked a huge debate on social media.

From the Gifs above it looks more like the gloves touching the stumps than the ball.
Imo the ball missed the stumps.

 

[Rajdeep]

Correct decision IMO

 

[JattMaula]

It was not out. Umpiring standards are falling everywhere but Indian umpires are especially incompetent.

 

[WengerOut]

Technically incorrect. For Indian fans, correct. He was awful today.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Umpires actually helped him. He was tuk-tuking anyway.

Ravi Shastri, who was doing commentary at the moment, felt the decision was unfair to the batter. "Oh, it's been given out! Daryl Mitchell should be happy," Shastri said on-air. "Should really be happy, because that, if you take a look again as to where the keeper's gloves are, where the ball is as it passes the stumps, it looked as if the ball was at least an inch, inch-and-a-half above the stumps ... Ball clearly looks to be above the bail. You can see as it goes past into the gloves, there's no red light, it's only after that. There you go. From that angle you can see that the gloves are closer to the bails than the ball," he added.

Decision probably got India another 10-15 runs.

Pandya was going nowhere.

 

[Mamoon]

Imagine the reaction if this was a Pakistani batsman against India in a World Cup game. People would be moaning left right & center & talking about all sorts of conspiracies.

Shocking decision.

Doesn’t matter. The keeper should be banned for a few matches for appealing for this.

Latham wasn't a regular keeper so he should be excused.

Lol, what an excuse!

No that use to be the case Pakistanis are the worse now and it’ll take something special to beat them

 

[SamNJ]

Actually from the last words umpires said suggested that he is going to give it not out. I guess he pressed wrong button.

Latham wasn't a regular keeper so he should be excused.

Lol, what an excuse!

This wasn't deliberate and he has no idea whether he hit it or not. Bails were barely hit and moved a second or two later. If you've kept before you'd know you have zero feeling from the tips. A graze or slight flick of the stumps in the middle of a delivery would not be picked up.

The one who should be eating a 2-3 match ban is Kishan. His was deliberate, against the spirit of the game and he wasted everyone's time by appealing.

If you've kept before you'd know you have zero feeling from the tips there's a gap and then protection for your fingers - you don't feel much until the ball hits the gloves or you use your hand to hit the stumps. A graze or slight flick of the stumps in the middle of a delivery would not be picked up. This is all while collecting the ball.

 

[cricketjoshila]

Not out. And the keeper should not be appealing for this.

 

[shamaan]

Poor decision

 

[angrypathan]

Wasn’t bowled. Bails dislodged by the gloves
