The game between India and Bangladesh in the T20 World Cup is currently taking place at the Adelaide Oval.

India posted a target of 185 and Bangladesh started the chase brilliantly, courtesy of Liton Das' 21-ball fifty. The rain disrupted Bangladesh's chase when they were 66/0 in seven overs.

The covers were off after the break and the target was revised to 151 in 16 overs.

However, Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan looked animated in front of the umpires and the outfield looked wet. Liton also slipped on the first ball after the game resumed.

Meanwhile, netizens accused umpires of favouring India as Bangladesh were already 17 runs ahead of the DLS method which would have given them a win and two crucial points

BCCI holds dominance in world cricket as netizens were of the word that India once again had the favour of umpires as match should not be resumed early.

Getting runout after slipping due to wet outfield and game is still on? Man, BCCI is really shameless.

Players are slipping but BCCI is making them play in rain. Next time someone says money doesn’t matter just slap him hard.
