There was chaos and what eventually became an over-delayed CPL game, when Imad Wasim of the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons was given lbw against the Trinbago Knight Riders in Port of Spain. The third umpire, Nigel Duguid, briefly overturned the initial not-out decision, but Wasim was called back to continue batting. This led to heated discussions between TKR captain Kieron Pollard and the on-field umpires, Christopher Taylor and Patrick Gustard. It occurred on the second ball of the tenth over, just after Sunil Narine had dismissed Hassan Khan for 36 runs off 20 balls. The Falcons required 67 runs from 65 balls when Wasim defended his first delivery. Narine bowled a good length, and the ball hit Wasim's pads right in front of middle stump. Umpire Taylor first gave the loud lbw appeal as not out, but Narine asked Pollard to review it. However, in review, the ball-tracking shows it was aiming at hitting the leg stump. So, it would have got Wasim out for a golden duck. Also Read | Watch: Fans Go Crazy as Virat Kohli Waves at Them During Chennai Test Wasim seemed sure he had hit the ball before it touched his pad. He talked with the umpires before walking off and was ready to challenge TKR's review when the big screen showed he had edged the ball. Falcons coach Curtly Ambrose was in the dugout, watching those replays and pointing his finger in protest against Wasim's dismissal. Pollard and the on-field umpires had a heated discussion on it as TKR coach Phil Simmons also signaled from the dugout. That caused nearly 12 minutes of delay as the camp for TKR was not happy with the final call, especially given that Wasim later went on to score the winning runs as he went on to win the match. 2019 final same today at cplToday match had everything pic.twitter.com/IAORyYuc6R — FAKHAR 💚 AMIR 💜IMAD (@hahs4221522) September 20, 2024 Despite losing on Thursday, TKR still remains the second team in the points table but has not yet qualified for a play-off. Pollard could not hide the discomfort he felt once and kept his words as short as possible during the presentation. "If I speak, I'll get into trouble," "So I better stay quiet on that." Falcons captain Chris Green was more vocal about the controversy. "Chaos, absolute chaos," "I don't know what went on. He was given out when he shouldn't have been, and then he stood over the rope and he probably shouldn't have - but he was told to. Absolute chaos. I don't know what happened, but this tournament continues to entertain in different ways... really happy with the win. We outplayed them in all facets of the game tonight, and we thoroughly deserve that win." Also Read | Rajasthan Royals Appoint Vikram Rathour as Batting Coach for IPL 2025
