"He was out based on laws and existing technology" - Aakash Chopra on Virat Kohli's controversial dismissal in RCB vs KKR IPL 2024 match
Virat Kohli's dismissal against a high full toss against KKR pacer Harshit Rana on Sunday evoked mixed reactions from the cricket fraternity. After the batter took a DRS review, the third umpire deemed the delivery legal. However, a section of fans and cricket pundits felt that the umpire made the wrong decision, while some others backed the match official's call.
Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra recently gave his opinion on the matter while speaking in a video uploaded on his YouTube channel. He said:
"Was Virat Kohli out? The debate is whether it was right or wrong based on the existing laws. Kohli was out according to the current laws. It seemed not out with the naked eye but nothing happens with the naked eye. He was out based on laws and existing technology. Every player's height and the distance from the ground to their waist have been measured. So there is no ambiguity now."
He continued:
"With the naked eye, it seemed like it was not out but it was a slower one, Kohli was standing outside and the point of impact was even further away. The ball had to travel from there till the crease. Ball trajectory is quite accurate and it showed that it would have been below his waist height if he had been standing at the crease and that's where it stop."
