Australain cricketers were well known for creating controversies in on field. Earlier many times they hits headlines for showing unsportsmanlike gesture. Once again they displayed it and it was happened in their quarter final match against Pakistan.
Putting up an impressive show, Australia reached the semi-finals of the cricket World Cup as they defeated Pakistan by six wickets in the third quarter-final. But on the flip side act of Australian keeper puts them in a fix.
Aussie keeper Brad Haddin reportedly knocked off Umar Akmal's bails during the Pak innings and then vociferously appealed. Haddin removes bails when batsman Umar tried to cut a Glenn Maxwell delivery. All fielders appealed for the wicket with Haddin also joining the chorus.
However, video evidence showed that it was Haddin's gloves that removed the bails and not the ball and the umpire judged Akmal not out. The cricket World Cup's official twitter handle posted about the incident,"@cricketworldcup False alarm at #AdelaideOval! Brad Haddin knocked the bails off & Akmal claims four runs. #PAK 112-3."
This is not the first time the keeper was up to something like this. A few years back, he had done the same thing against New Zealand and Neil Broom had to depart as the umpires failed to catch what Haddin did.
