Liam Scott survives run out in bizarre circumstances in IND-A vs AUS-A 2nd unofficial ODI

A contentious moment in the second unofficial ODI between India A and Australia A unfolded in Pondicherry on Friday, October 9, as Liam Scott narrowly avoided dismissal in a highly unusual run-out scenario. Batting in the 41st over of Australia A’s innings, Scott appeared to be out when a throw from Anukul Roy struck the stumps without immediately dislodging the bail.

Despite initially believing he was out, Scott was declared not out after umpire Kannur Swaroopanand ruled that the left bail had not fully lifted from its groove before Scott had completed his run. The decision allowed Scott to continue his innings, though he was later dismissed for four runs off Roy’s bowling, ending his brief reprieve.

India A, trailing the series opener by 125 runs, aims to level the series with a strong performance in this match.
