Watch – ‘Pathetic umpiring’: Harmanpreet Kaur lashes out at umpires after tied third ODI | Cricket News – Times of India

Bangladesh achieved their highest-ever total of 225/4 in the 50-over format against India, with Fargana Hoque (107) impressively registering her country’s first-ever ODI century.
In response, India’s opener, Smriti Mandhana, contributed 59 runs, and Harleen Deol displayed a remarkable performance with 77 runs in the middle-order. However, India’s batting lineup experienced a dramatic collapse, losing their last six wickets for a mere 34 runs, eventually getting bowled out for 225 in 49.3 overs.

The series ended in a tie at 1-1, leaving India to settle for this result after the three-match ODI series against Bangladesh.
“I think (there is) a lot of learning for us from the game. Even apart from the cricket, the kind of umpiring that was happening, we were very surprised. The next time we come to Bangladesh we will make sure we have to deal with this type of umpiring and prepare ourselves accordingly,” Harmanpreet told the broadcaster after the match.
India’s last pair of Jemimah Rodrigues (33 not out) and Meghna Singh (6) took the team close to win, but a contentious caught-behind decision against the latter seems to have added to India’s woes.
Both Jemimah and Meghna looked unhappy with the caught-behind decision.
The India captain lashed out at the on-field umpires, Muhammad Kamruzzaman and Tanvir Ahmed — both locals –, terming their umpiring as “pathetic”.
Harmanpreet said, “They (Bangladesh) batted really well, batted according to the situation. They were taking those singles which were very crucial. In between, we leaked a few runs but we controlled the game very well when we were batting, but as I mentioned earlier, some pathetic umpiring was done.
“We are really disappointed about some decisions given by the umpires,” said the India captain, who hit the stumps with her bat in frustration and gestured towards the umpire when she was adjudged out leg-before for 14 off Nahida Akter.
The India captain praised Harleen Deol for her 77, which came off 108 balls with nine fours.
“She looked very promising in the last game, so we promoted her to bat freely and she took the opportunity with both hands. Jemi (Jemimah) was really good throughout the innings. She played well,” she said.
“(It was a) good game, (a) lot of learning and lastly our High Commission from India is also there and I hope you could have invited him here, but that is also fine. And thank you sir for coming here,” the India captain told the host broadcaster.
Bangladesh had earlier recorded their first-ever ODI win against India in the first match when they won by 40 runs via the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method, but the visitors bounced back to defeat the hosts by 108 runs in the second game.
