Was confident of hitting six sixes against Rajasthan but umpire’s decision is final: Powell
Mumbai| Delhi Capitals’ aggressive batsman Rovman Powell was expected to score the 36 runs he needed in the last over against Rajasthan Royals but his momentum was broken after a controversial no-ball followed by three consecutive sixes. Instead of focusing on the upcoming matches. Powell hit sixes in the first three balls of Obed McCoy.
But after not giving a ‘no-ball’ to the third ball, Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant started calling his players off the field. Coach Praveen Amre gestured for a ‘no-ball’ check, which stalled the match for a while.
“This is something we will soon have to get behind,” Powell said in a release issued here. We still have a lot of matches to play and there is no point in living in the past.
The West Indies player said, “We will always have to look to the future to qualify for the next round of the competition. He said, “To be honest, I was quite confident (about hitting six sixes in an over).
I felt after the first two balls that I could do it. I was just hoping it would be a no ball but the umpire’s decision is final and as cricketers we have to move on.
