It was unfortunate and a gray area but usually, such a call goes in favor of the batter when the on-field decision is not out. Not today. It's part of the game, so it's all good and we shouldn't read much into it.
It was a tough call for sure which is why he definitely deserved the call to go in his favor and literally everyone were aware of the fact that he was the only one standing between the Kiwis and history. Trash umpiring!
Pant dismissal wasn't really too much controversial. There was clear audio spike when the ball passed the bat. Rishabh Pant was doing very well, that's why some supporters might address his wicket as controversial.
I disagree. It was 100% controversial. The spike could have occurred due to his bat hitting his pad too which was what he told the umpires. Kiwis got really lucky with that call.
Everyone having his own views about this, but now it's all part of cricket history India humiliated by average New Zealand side with the result of 3–0 at home.
Indians were overconfident, and they were expecting New Zealand will be like Bangladesh easy bunny, but they have done historic achievement and have this win on Indian soil Rishabh Pant out was right or wrong it's all ended now after BGT Indian selectors needed to be overhauled this test side with young blood.
If we have Pakistan instead of New Zealand surely government going to announce national holiday tomorrow and declare its National Day of Pakistan.
