TIL Desk Sports/ An angry Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli came down heavily on ICC Elite Panel umpire S Ravi after the final delivery of the match bowled by Mumbai Indians’s Lasith Malinga turned out to be a ‘no-ball’, which was not awarded to the losing team.
Winning captain Rohit Sharma was also critical of the standard of umpiring during the match. “We are playing at the IPL level. It’s not club level; the umpires should have their eyes open. That was a big no-ball. That is a ridiculous call (last ball).
If it is a game of margins, I don’t know what is happening. They should have been more sharp and careful out there,” a livid Kohli said at the post-match presentation ceremony. Incidentally, Ravi is the only Indian umpire in ICC’s Elite Panel for a number of years now as none of the others have been good enough to be elevated.
