Women’s World Cup 2025: Umpiring aur DRS ke Faislon par Sawal

Women’s World Cup 2025 ke pehle do hafton mein hi cricket ke maidan se kuch aisi tasweer ubhri hain jisne khel ke mayaar aur umpireon ki salahiyat par bade sawalat khade kar diye hain. Khaas taur par Decision Review System (DRS) ka istemal is baar bahas ka markaz bana hua hai.

Heather Knight ka Waqia aur Confusion

England aur Bangladesh ke match mein Heather Knight ko milne wali ‘teen life lines’ ne sab ko hairan kar diya. Jab Knight 13 run par khel rahi thin, unhone ek catch diya jo Shorna Akter ne pakda, lekin TV umpire Gayathri Venugopalan ne ise ‘inconclusive’ qarar de diya. Nasser Hussain ne bhi is par gussa zahir karte hue kaha ke khud Knight bhi maan rahi thin ke woh out thin aur pavilion ja rahi thin, lekin umpire ke faisle ne match ka rukh badal diya.

Muneeba Ali aur Sune Luus ke Cases

Pakistan ki opener Muneeba Ali ke run-out ke waqt bhi badi bad-intezami dekhne ko mili. TV umpire Kerrin Klaaste ne pehle faisla ‘not-out’ diya, phir footage dobara dekh kar use ‘out’ badal diya, jis se maidan mein kafi afra-tafri rahi. Isi tarah India aur South Africa ke match mein Sune Luus ka lbw case bhi kafi controversial raha, jahan Ultra Edge ki awaaz ko bunyad bana kar faisla diya gaya, halanke replay mein ball aur bat ke darmiyan fasla saaf dikh raha tha.

Umpireon ki Tajurbe ki Kami (Lack of Experience)

Research se pata chalta hai ke tournament ke 10 TV umpires mein se sirf teen hi aise hain jinhone 20 se zyada matches mein DRS ke sath kaam kiya hai. La Borde, N Janani, aur Sarah Dambanenava jaise umpireon ka DRS ke sath tajurba na-hone ke barabar hai, jo is tournament mein badi ghaltiyon ki ek badi waja lagta hai.

Statcheck: Kya Faisle Zyada Palat Rahe Hain?

• Total successful overturns: 25 (36 innings mein)
• Overturn rate: 0.67 per innings (2023 Men’s World Cup mein ye 0.46 tha)

Ye stats saaf dikhate hain ke maidan par umpireon ke faislon mein kafi ghair-yaqeeni surat-e-haal hai. ICC ne abhi tak in shukookat par koi wazeh jawab nahi diya hai, lekin fans aur experts ka manna hai ke bade tournaments mein behtar aur tajurbakar umpireon ki zaroorat hai taake khiladiyon ki mehnat zaya na ho.
