That really wasn't cricket was it. A warning should have been given first. I know the Laws don't need this, but c'mon.
I'm pretty sure the Umpires would have asked the Indian Captain if she wished to withdraw the appeal, but she obviously refused.

Exactly, England still needed 17 to win with the last 2 batters at the wicket, India were also 2-0 up and had already won the series. All those fans from either side were being treated to a very exciting finale to the game, which was ruined to it's premature ending. It all ended in shock, for the Players, Umpires, Fans and tv audiences around the world, very poor gamesmanship indeed. |

I think this one will run and run. Heather Knight, the England captain although injured, has said that the Indians assertion from Sharma that Dean was warned was not true. She said no warning was given by the Indians. She actually called Sharma out for, in her words, “lying.” That’s pretty strong in today’s never criticise anything anyone says or does. I don’t know the cricket schedule for England Women but the next Tim ether play India I don’t think they will need any encouragement to play as best they can, in football parlance, the Indians have given the England coach’s team talk for them.
I don’t think there needs to be any change in the laws because legally she was out but cricketers all over do play with a spirit not always easy in other sports. In this I think the MCC were right in saying they dont plan to look at the law. There’s no need, the players just need to play in the spirit of the game.
I’m sure others have done it but all I can remember is Mankad, Ravi Ashwin and now Sharma, all Indian cricketers. Perhaps it’s a more occurrence in India.
Whatever, it certainly appears that the spirit of how to play cricket has taken a hit.

Agree, i just hope our team, Men or Women do not get into the tit for tat mentallity when they play the Indians in future. The Women's team have no more fixtures for this year at all. The Men still have games to play v Pakistan & Australia before the World Cup starting Monday 17th October. |

Need to rise above it and show the right spirit, that will portray them in a good light and show the Indians up for what they did. Interesting to see that in the RHF Trophy on Sunday, just a day after, Charlie Dean made a joke of pretending to do it against a Diamonds batswoman. They both laughed and as it turned out that was an even closer match though the incident was in the first innings. Good to see she had recovered and had a sense of humour regarding it. |

Ruturaj Gaikwad: India batter hits seven sixes in one over..ichef.bbci.co.uk/onesport/cps/800/cpsprodpb/8930/production/_127802153_gettyimages-1234269180.jpgGaikwad made his debut ODI appearance for India in October against South Africa
Ruturaj Gaikwad has become the first cricketer to hit seven sixes in one over in a limited-overs match. The India batter, 25, broke the record in a Vijay Hazare Trophy quarter-final, playing for Maharashtra against Uttar Pradesh in Ahmedabad on Monday. Left-arm spinner Shiva Singh was the bowler hit for seven sixes - the fifth of which came off a no-ball, earning Gaikwad an extra delivery. The 43 runs conceded also equalled the record for most runs off an over. That record was set in Hamilton, New Zealand in 2018 by Northern Districts batters Joe Carter and Brett Hampton, who hit Central Districts' Willem Ludick for six sixes, a four and a single in an over containing two no-balls. Gaikwad, who plays for Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League, smashed 220 off 159 balls, including 16 sixes and 10 fours - going from 165 off 147 to 207 off 154 after his seven sixes. The opener's unbeaten 220 helped Maharashtra to post 330-5 from their 50 overs, on the way to a 58-run win. In 1990, former New Zealand captain Lee Germon hit eight sixes in an over which went for 77 during a first-class match, albeit in contrived circumstances. West Indies legend Sir Garfield Sobers was the first batter to hit six sixes in an over in professional cricket, and Gaikwad is the 10th player to do so. Gaikwad also equalled the record - held by three men - of hitting the highest number of sixes (16) in a single List-A (limited-overs) innings. Who has hit six sixes in an over in professional cricket?
1968 - Sir Garfield Sobers (for Nottinghamshire v Glamorgan)* 1984 - Ravi Shastri (Bombay v Baroda)* 2007 - Herschelle Gibbs (South Africa v Netherlands, World Cup) 2007 - Yuvraj Singh (India v England, T20) 2017 - Ross Whiteley (Worcestershire v Yorkshire, T20) 2018 - Hazratullah Zazai (Kabul Zwanan v Balkh Legends, T20) 2020 - Leo Carter (Canterbury v Northern Districts, T20) 2021 - Kieron Pollard (West Indies v Sri Lanka, T20) 2021 - Thisara Perera (Sri Lanka Army Sports Club v Bloomfield, List A) 2022 (seven) - Ruturai Gaikwad (Maharashtra v Uttar Pradesh, List A) *first-class cricket

Thing is even if it was you or me bowling at him, it still takes a lot to hit 7 different balls out of the park. |
