Bizarre run-out at the end of PowerplayIt was a classic case of why you never run off a misfield. Raghuvanshi drove it straight back to Malinga, who got a boot to it and half-stopped the ball. Both batters hesitated and ended up stranded mid-pitch. Malinga quickly recovered, picked up the ball, and calmly broke the stumps at the bowler’s end.

Initially, it appeared Raghuvanshi had crossed, and he even began walking back, visibly frustrated. However, replays confirmed both batters were at the same end, leaving Green short of his ground. Cameron Green departed for 2 off 2 in a bizarre run-out.
