England lost the match by 15 runs which saw another controversy, with the 3rd Umpire ruling Chris Jordan out in a close Run Out call. English Coach Peter Moores was clearly furious with the decision and the decision cleared the way for Bangladesh to win the match in a nail-biter.
The decision was a close one and to be fair, for anyone to decide the outcome of the runout, it will surely involve which team he is supporting. For Bangladesh fans, it was a correct one but for English fans, it didnot make sense.
Jordan however did cros the crease but his bat seemed to be in air and the third Umpire Simon Fry took a long time before declaring that Jordan is short of the crease. Shakib al Hasan had a direct go at the stumps and none of the players seemed very excited even though it was a direct hit . Just an appeal, not a loud one and the Umpires went upstairs, only to find Jordan short of the crease.
England are now out of the tournament and will surely undergo some bulk changes in the coming days. And the fact that they dropped Kevin Pieterson will now be surely a hot topic of discussion, and Piers Morgan will lead it, someone who always advocated for his place in the side.
