Watch: ‘This One Is Robbery’, Sadeera Samarawickrama Catch To Dismiss Chris Woakes Goes Viral After Umpiring Controversy Erupts

All is not going well for the 2019 World Cup champions England as they suffered from another batting collapse in match no. 25 of the ongoing Cricket World Cup 2023 against Sri Lanka on Thursday. Sri Lanka bowled England out for just 156 runs on the board in 33.2 overs. Kusal Mendis displayed brilliant captaincy to stumble the England batting lineup after opener Dawid Malan departed inside the first ten overs leaving his team 45 for 1 in 6.3 overs.

After that, England never really settled after Dawid Malan’s dismissal as wickets kept on falling following Joe Root’s horror run out. Some of the fans were not impressed with the umpire’s decision of giving Woakes out by declaring Sadeera Samarawickrama’s catch as legal. Fans questioned that the camera angle did not show properly whether the catch was completed legally or not.
