He Only Managed to Hit the Ball Inside the Flap of His Right Pad, and It Slowly Started to Roll Down the Side of His Leg.
The Aussie GLOVEMAN Alex CAREY WAS EYEING A POTENTIAL CATCH and Approached the Batter, But Bedingham Took Possession of the Ball and Threw It On the Ground. There was a slight appeal from the players, but the on-field umpires, Richard Illingworth And Chris Gaffaney, Declared the Ball Dead.
This Created A Lot of Chaos and Became the Biggest Talking Point from Day 2 of the WTC Final. As per the law, a ball becomes dead when: “where played or not it becomes trapped between the bat and person of a batter or between items of His/Her Clothing or Equipment, [or] Lodges in the Clothing or Equipment of A Batter or the Clothing of An Umpire. “

“I’m just glad they with the appeal because there [would be] More controversy and that type of stuff. I’m glad Nothing Happened out of it, Really. The Slip Cordon Just Told Me, ‘Don’t Panic, Just Leave It…’ But in the moment, i think i panicked big-time. “
Notely, Australia Skipper Cummins Said at the press conference that they would have withdrawn the appeal anyway had umpires not signaled a dead ball.
