Anil Choudhary Explains Controversial Non-Wide Decision in Tight Win

Anil Choudhary is a cricket umpire.

He explained a decision about whether a delivery should count as a wide.

He said the decision was correct under the rule being applied.

For wides, both sides of the batter are treated as offside.

This remains true even if the players change or reverse their positions.

Another umpire, Chris Brown, was told to cancel the decision.

The umpires talked and reversed it.

India then won the close match by two runs.
