After this, the South African team scored 271 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in 47.2 overs and registered a huge victory. Shanxi was lbw in this match off the bowling of harris Roff. When the Pakistani players appealed to the field umpire, he did not give out. Captain Babar Azam then appealed to the third umpire.
A not-out was awarded as the umpire's decision was final. The third umpire's decision has drawn criticism not only from fans but also from ex-players. In this regard, former indian player harbhajan singh said on his twitter page that pakistan lost the match because of wrong decisions and rules of referees.
According to the LBW rule, if the ball hits the stumps, it is out, if it does not, it is not out. What if the arbitrator decides this? What is the point of using technology like this? He posted that the ICC should change this rule. According to the umpire's call rule, if 50 percent of the ball touches the stumps, an out is given. It is worth noting that if perhaps 50 percent of the ball is outside the stumps, the umpire's decision will be decided in favor of it.
