India Beats Pakistan by 88 Runs in Women's World Cup with Disputed Dismissal and No Handshakes
Muneeba Ali was controversially run out while stationary with her bat in the air, sparking debate over ICC Playing Condition 30.1.2 during Pakistan’s chase.
- On Sunday, Pakistan opener Muneeba Ali was run out at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, with third umpire Kerrin Klaaste upholding the dismissal after review.
- Under ICC Playing Condition 30.1.2 the rule states a batter is out if her bat is airborne when the bails are dislodged, and replays showed Muneeba Ali's bat was in the air when Deepti Sharma's throw hit the stumps.
- On the final ball of the fourth over, India appealed for lbw, but the on-field umpire turned it down before Deepti Sharma's direct hit struck the stumps at the striker's end.
- The dismissal helped derail Pakistan's chase of 248 as they were bowled out for 159, helping India women's team to an 88-run victory and extending their unbeaten record to 12-0.
- Fans and social media erupted over the run-out, with Pakistan captain Fatima Sana protesting officials as tensions persisted before upcoming matches against Australia and South Africa.
