Delhi: It is common to have a mild debate between the players on the cricket ground. In a big tournament like the Indian Premier League (IPL), such views have been seen before. A similar incident was seen in Ahmedabad, when Ishant Sharma and Ashutosh Sharma got entangled in the match between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Delhi Capitals (DC).
Delhi’s strong batting
In this match played at Narendra Modi Stadium on Saturday, April 19, Delhi Capitals batted first and scored a big score. Middle order batsman Ashutosh Sharma contributed to this score, who strengthened the team by batting fast in the last over.
Conflict in 19th over
When Gujarat fast bowler Ishant Sharma was bowling in the 19th over of Delhi’s innings, he dismissed Donovan Ferreira on the fourth ball of that over. But on the last ball of the over, he made a strong appeal against Ashutosh Sharma. The umpire called him not out, but the Gujarat Titans had no review left. Ishant’s anger broke out on this and he went directly to Ashutosh and started expressing displeasure. He said something while showing finger.

Ashutosh kept restraint, is calm
However, Ashutosh showed full restraint and did not respond. He told Ishant in a calm manner that the ball went not with his bat but with his shoulder. The good thing is that the matter did not increase much and Ishant calmed down and left from there.
Repley revealed the truth
Later, when the incident was reviewed in the replay, it became clear that the ball was really collided with Ashutosh’s shoulder, not with the bat. After this, Ashutosh Sharma was dismissed on the fifth ball of the 20th over, but by then he had scored 37 runs on 19 balls and had brought the team close to 200 runs.
