VIDEO: Pollard’s ‘Silent’ angry anger on Umpire during CPL match after Umpire didn’t give wide ball
Kieron Pollard fight with Umpire: In this match, when the team of Trinbago Knight Riders was batting, there was a unique sight on the field. This match saw a very poor decision on the part of the umpire, after which Pollard showed his disagreement.
Captain Kieron Pollard and team Seifert were batting in the 19th over for TKR’s team after losing the toss and opting to bat first. On the fifth ball of the over, Wahab Riaz bowled a ball which was a big wide.
Although Seifert tried his best to hit a long shot on the ball but the ball was far out of his reach. The ball was so out of line that Seifert, despite his best efforts, could not connect it with his bat.

But the umpire did not give the ball so much outside the line of wide, after which Pollard, the star batsman of the team standing at the non-strike end, expressed his displeasure. First he tried to talk to the umpire about this matter but the umpire did not change his decision and termed it as a legal ball. After this, Pollard left his position and stood near the mark near the 30 yard circle.
Batting first in this match, Trinbago team scored 158 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. St Lucia Kings team 131 for the loss of 7 wickets in stipulated 20 overs.
