When The Angry Crowd Forced Cricket Officials to Change an Out Decision_ #ausvswi #cricketshorts #westindies #controversial #aussie

During the 7th ODI between West Indies and Australia in 1999, Sherwin Campbell collided with the Bowler and fell to the ground while attempting a single. As Campbell lay on the ground, Michael Bevin ran him out. Campbell protested that the Bowler had deliberately blocked his path, but the umpire declared him out. The controversial decision made the West Indian crowd crazy. They threw bottles and stones at the players on the field, demanding that Campbell be allowed to resume his innings. Looking at the hostile crowd, the players left the field in a state of panic. Although the police brought the crowd under control, the match was stopped for some time. Suddenly, the match referee confirmed that Australia had no objection to Campbell, resuming his innings. After that, all the players returned to the field, and Campbell also came back to continue batting. It was an unusual incident in cricket history, as an enraged crowd forced officials to change a decision from out to not out. And surprisingly, Steve Wall accepted it.
