A scoreboard error caused India C captain Ajinkya Rahane to celebrate his century even before he actually🎃 reached the three-figure mark against India B in the Deodhar Trophy final at the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium on Saturday.
Rahane and Ishan Kishan slammed respective centuries to help their side clinch the title by beating India B in the final. For the defending champions, Shreyas Iyer slammed a ton as well but it went in🐎 vain as his team fell short by 29 runs in the end.
However, in a funny turn of events, after having a look at the faulty scoreboard, Rahane tꦓhought he had completed his century and ended up raising his bat to acknowledge his teammates in the dressing room.
But soon the corre💫ction was made as his teammates signalled that he was still three runs behind. Suresh Raina stood up and showed him three fingers which, with a sheepish grin, Rahane eventually saw.
He reached his century later on, with a single and this time, there was no confusion. For his match-winning ton, Rahane was also chosen as the ‘Player of the match’.
Here is the video:
What happened there? 😁 �� felt he got to a ꦿ100, was quick to rectify there were 3 more runs to go 😄
