IND vs BAN: Bangladesh And Pakistan Fans Claim Indian Cricket Team Is Cheating In T20 World Cup 2022 After Virat Kohli Asks For No Ball
After rain began to fall, the game between India and Bangladesh was called off. Litton Das came out swinging and snatched the lead by making 184/6 from India through a magnificent 59 not out off 26 balls, studded with seven fours and three sixes at a strike rate of 226.7. At the time of the break, Bangladesh were 66-0 in seven overs.
The game was cut short once play started again.
The aim for Bangladesh was changed from 185 in 20 overs to 151 in 16 overs. With all of the wickets in hand, they need 85 more runs in the next nine overs to win the game.
However, Bangladesh opener Litton Das and Shanto went for a second run on the second ball of R Ashwin’s eighth over, and as a result, the former fell over while turning for the second run. KL Rahul hit him directly, knocking him out.
Bangladesh lost their stride after Das left and fell short by 5 runs. Bangladesh’s failure was lamented by Pakistan supporters since a victory would have harmed India’s hopes. The SA victory would thereafter be dependent on Babar Azam and company.
Fans of Bangladesh and Pakistan vented their annoyance on social media. Here are the reactions.

Bangladesh were ahead on D/L and ICC restarted the match when the ground was very wet and not ready to play. Das was injured the very first ball after rain break. When will Team36 stop cheating? 🤮💰👎 #NotCricket https://t.co/Gll1JnVrba
