On Tuesday in the match between RCB and DC, we witnessed a great sportsmanship spirit in match by Prithvi Shaw. He started to walk back even though the umpire gave not out to him. By this, he became the first walker of this season.
Actually in the 8th over of the match when Purple Cap holder Harshal Patel came to bowl Prithvi Shaw was looking good. But unfortunately in the second bowl of the over Harshal bowled a short delivery outside off, Shaw wanted to cut but got an outside edge.
😢
Prithvi Shaw edges a wide delivery to the keeper and has to walk back for 21.

It went towards the keeper and AB de Villiers didn’t make any mistake and took the simple catch. After this players started to appeal but the umpire was not looking convinced and he gave a not-out. But Prithvi Shaw showed a great sportsmanship spirit and started to walk back.
Prithvi Shaw scored 21 runs in 18 balls and was looking good. DC has to chase a target of 172 runs. Can DC continue their winning streak?
