Bangladesh vs West Indies 3rd T20I: The on-field umpires got it totally wrong when Oshane Thomas bowled a legitimate delivery and got the Liton Das caught in the deep. The umpire called it a no-ball whereas replays showed Thomas had his foot behind the line clearly. This was unfair and once the message was passed to Windies captain Carlos Brathwaite, he took up the case with the umpires. Brathwaite, who is usually a cool customer was fuming as he knew it had cost them a wicket in the all-important decider. Last game, a few of the decisions were overturned and now this no-ball fiasco. Match referee Jeff Crowe had a chat with the Windies team management. The on-field umpires with the fourth umpire had a huddle.
Here is the video which shows Oshane Thomas had not overstepped.

In the end, going by the rule book it was not given out, in fact, the no-ball, as well as the free hit, also stayed and the game moved forward.
Earlier, Windies set a target of 191 for Bangladesh, thanks to Evin Lewis’ breathtaking 89 off 36 balls laced with eight humungous sixes and six fours, just a testament of his dominance. At the time of filing the copy, Bangladesh was 127/8 in 15 overs. Keemo Paul has been the pick of the bowlers, he has picked up five wickets for 15 runs.
