New Delhi: Team India is facing the threat of defeat in the Bengaluru Test match. Team India which was bowled out for just 46 runs in the first innings against New Zealand made a strong comeback in the second innings but still could not set a big target for New Zealand. Amidst all this the fourth day of the match had to be ended about an hour earlier due to rain but just before that Team India captain Rohit Sharma and former captain Virat Kohli had a heated argument with the umpires. Why did this happen and was it right for the Indian captain to argue like this? What happened suddenly in the Bengaluru Test? On the fourth day of this match being played at the Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday October 19 Team Indias second innings ended at 462 runs. In such a situation the Kiwi team got a target of 107 runs to win. There was still about an hour of play left in the days game when New Zealand started batting in the second innings. During this time thick clouds covered the sky above the stadium which was good news for Team India because it could help Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj to swing the ball. Jasprit Bumrah who came to bowl the first over had bowled only 4 balls when the umpires stopped the game. All four floodlights of the stadium were lit but it was still getting dark. In such a situation the umpires checked the light with a light meter and decided to stop the game. In such a situation both the New Zealand openers immediately headed towards the pavilion because this was a relief news for them but the Indian team did not like it. What happened then captain Rohit Sharma started arguing with umpires Paul Rifle and Michael Gough. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma had a heated argument: Rohit Sharma started raising questions on why the game was stopped without completing an over. Not only this Rohit probably also tried to explain to the umpire that Team India can also bowl with spinners. Rohit was looking very angry during this time and during this time Virat Kohli also jumped in between and he also started presenting arguments in front of the umpire. The whole team surrounded both the umpires but the umpires did not listen to the Indian team and stood by their decision. Team India remained on the field for some time but then within a few minutes heavy rain started in Bengaluru and the ground had to be covered.

The rain was so heavy that the hope of the match starting again was over and stumps had to be declared. Now the question is was it right for the Indian captain to argue? The answer is no. Actually according to the rules whenever the light starts dimming in any Test match the umpire takes its reading from his meter. If a decision is taken to stop the game on that reading then the same reading is applied on the remaining days of the match. On the second day of the Bengaluru Test the match was stopped 10 minutes before the start due to poor light and the reading was taken at that time as well. In such a situation the umpires applied the same on the fourth day as well and according to the rules they were right in their place. The disadvantage of this debate is that captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli can be fined.
