In the ongoing Abu Dhabi T10 league 2023, a strange incident during the match between Northern Warriors and Chennai Braves has raised a lot of eyebrows. The former India fast-bowler Abhimanyu Mithun, who shared the dressing room with greats like Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and MS Dhoni, bowled a huge no-ball during the fixture, leaving everyone perplexed.
While bowling for Northern Warriors, Mithun in the fifth over of Chennai’s chase of 107, bowled a huge no ball to Charith Asalanka. The bowler missed the mark by such a great margin, that it reminded everyone of Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir during 2010 England tour, who kept bowling big no-balls. He was later caught in spot-fixing.
While there is no proof of any sort of foul play on Mithun’s part, but there certainly is a doubt created in the fans’ minds. As far as the match is concerned, Chennai did manage to win the match by five wickets, and two balls to spare. Sikandar Raza helped the case with a 10-ball 27 cameo, while skipper Asalanka scored 22 from 16.
