Delhi Capitals No-Ball Controversy: Irfan Pathan, Glenn Maxwell raise questions
DC suffered a close defeat to Rajasthan in a high-scoring thriller. With 36 runs needed in the last six balls for Delhi Capitals, Rovman Powell hit six of the first two balls of the over of left-arm pacer Obed McCoy. On the third ball, he again hit a full toss ball for a maximum, and that full toss according to Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant and team management was a no-ball. But the on-field umpire did not give a no-ball and even refused to consult the third umpire. Pant threatened to forfeit the match and asked both Powell and Kuldeep Yadav to come out of the field.

“So umpires check no balls for front foot every ball, but can’t check a high full toss? Makes sense,” Glenn Maxwell tweeted.
