India vs Bangladesh T20 World Cup 2022: In the T20 World Cup 2022, the Indian team defeated Bangladesh. This match played in Adelaide on Wednesday (November 2) was very exciting. In this match that lasted till the last over, Team India won by 5 runs. But it seems that Bangladeshi players and fans have been shocked after this defeat.
After the match, Bangladesh wicket-keeper batsman Nurul Hasan accused Virat Kohli of fake fielding. He said that Kohli had done fake fielding in the match, which the umpires did not see. If he had seen, then 5 runs could have been given to the Bangladesh team as a penalty. These runs could have played a significant role in victory or defeat.
Kohli Was Seen Running His Hand In The Viral Video
However, the incident of Kohli’s fake fielding has also been captured on camera. Its video is also becoming quite viral on social media. This incident happened in the 7th over during Bangladesh’s innings in the match. Batsman Liton Das ran for a run after playing a shot on the off side of the ball of spinner Axar Patel. Then Arshdeep Singh threw the ball while fielding.
But in the meantime, the ball came out from near Virat Kohli standing at point. But Kohli did not catch the ball but did an action like catching the ball and throwing. Then the field umpires Marais Erasmus, and Chris Brown did not take action. He may not have seen this incident at all. Then Liton Das and Najmul Hussain Shanto were at the crease. He also did not pay attention and did not raise any objections.
Dear @ICC it’s not fake fielding?

Nurul Hasan Said This To The Media Behind The Match
This, Nurul Hasan, drew everyone’s attention after the match. He told the media, ‘Everyone had seen that the ground was wet at this time. This also had a significant impact on the match. When talking about this, let me tell you there was a fake throw too. On this, 5 runs could have been given as a penalty. It could have been in our favour, but unfortunately, it didn’t happen either.
What Does The Rule Say In The Case Of Fake Fielding
Unfair play in cricket is described in Rule 41.5. According to this, it is forbidden to deliberately distract the batsman, deceive, or cause any obstruction. If this happens, the umpire can declare this ball dead under this rule. Also, 5 runs can be added to the batting team’s account.
