Suryakumar Yadav\u2019s India emerged victorious in a tense Super Over, with the captain hitting the winning runs on the very first ball. Sri Lanka came close to chasing down 203 but ultimately fell short, allowing India to maintain their unbeaten streak in the tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Super Over added even more drama, highlighted by a bizarre incident on the fourth ball of Sri Lanka\u2019s innings. Dasun Shanaka was controversially given not out despite appearing run out by wicketkeeper Sanju Samson off Arshdeep Singh\u2019s delivery. Arshdeep bowled a yorker outside off-stump, and Dasun Shanaka missed the ball while attempting a cross to Kamindu Mendis. Samson dislodged the bails, and Arshdeep appealed for a caught-behind, with umpire Gazi Sohel initially raising his finger. However, as the ball had already been declared dead, Dasun Shanaka\u2019s review confirmed he had not hit the bat, and the not-out decision stood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/e2bet77.net\/index.php\/2025\/09\/25\/dhonis-simple-funda-unveiled\/\">The sequence left Suryakumar and the Indian contingent momentarily confused, but after consulting with the umpires, they returned to their positions, satisfied with the explanation.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea8Chaos in the Super Over! \ud83d\udea8<br><br>Arshdeep to Shanaka \u2014 given caught behind, Sri Lanka reviews&#8230; but wait!
