Delhi Capitals Star's Stumping Dismissal Against Mumbai Indians Sparks Controversy, Splits Internet
Delhi Capitals wicket-keeper batter Abishek Porel 's stumping dismissal sparked a massive controversy during the IPL 2025 match against Mumbai Indians on Wednesday. During DC's run chase, Porel was dismissed by Will Jacks but social media users were not convinced that his back leg was grounded in time or not. The third umpire decided that the back leg was in the air when the bails were removed but fans came up with a number of video clips to contradict the call. The dismissal proved to be crucial in the context of the match as MI book their IPL 2025 playoff berth with a big win over DC.

'We would've been very happy to get 160 but the way Naman and Surya finished it. Especially Naman, to come out and just hit on a difficult track was outstanding.' Naman Dhir smashed 24 off just eight balls, including two sixes and two fours, to provide the late flourish. Knocked out of title contention, Delhi Capitals' stand-in skipper Faf du Plessis said their failure to qualify for the IPL playoffs was a reflection of a faltering campaign. DC were eliminated after failing to chase 181, crumbling to 121 all out for a massive 59-run defeat. 'If you looked at the two teams before today's fixture, it was a case of David and Goliath, I enjoy that because it gives guys the opportunity to really play together as a team,' du Plessis said. 'Rizvi today showed some signs, he's got some talent there. When you're playing against a powerful team like this, you need to be at your best all the time and unfortunately for 17-18 overs we were and then the last two overs we were pretty average. 'With the bat, we needed a good start on a surface like that and we didn't get going at all. Sums up pretty much our season, we've been cold in either batting or bowling in the last 6-7 games. To be in the top four in the IPL, you can't afford to do that.'
