Heinrich Klaasen was controversially dominated out for Sunrisers Hyderabad in its season-opener in opposition to Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Klaasen tried to heave Romario Shepherd into the leg-side in the thirteenth over of the innings, and was caught by Phil Salt with the Englishman very near the rope.
Salt accomplished a tumbling catch near the rope and rolled away from cushion upon finishing it. The on-field umpires despatched the catch up for referral to the third umpire to test its legitimacy.
Upon evaluation, Salt’s bottom seemed to be near the rope as he accomplished the catch. However, the third umpire Rohan Pandit dominated the catch to be clear, and an sad Klaasen was pressured to depart.
