The umpire made a huge mistake… a unique incident in cricket that will make you bang your head

There have been many interesting stories related to the cricket field. But, the unique incident that we are going to mention in this game full of uncertainties has neither been seen before nor heard of. This is a very strange incident in itself, which was witnessed on the cricket ground in Australia. Actually, this incident was the result of a big mistake made by the umpire. What happened was that the team won, and even after that, the match continued.

Now tell me, have you ever heard of or seen such an incident in which the match continued even after one team won? Probably not. But, this was seen in the match played between Tasmania and Western Australia in the Sheffield Shield tournament in Australia. In this match, Western Australia defeated Tasmania, but even after that, the match continued due to the mistake of the umpires.

Now the question is why did this happen? So before reaching the answer to this question, it is important to take a look at the situation of the match. Batting first in the match, Tasmania scored 277 runs. In response, Western Australia scored 332 runs in the first innings and thus took a lead of 55 runs in the first innings. Tasmania's second innings was reduced to 137 runs and Western Australia got an easy target of 83 runs to win.

Target chased, yet the match continued… umpires made a blunder

The Western Australia team achieved the target of 83 runs by losing 4 wickets. But what happened was that neither the umpire nor the players remembered the target. Therefore, the match continued even after the target was chased. And then something was seen which has hardly been seen before in cricket history.
