‘Kabootar ki tarah koodta rehta’: India umpire Anil Chaudhary’s brutal swipe at Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan. Watch | Cricket News



NEW DELHI: Pakistan keeper Mohammad Rizwan‘s is famously known for his relentless appealing from behind the stumps during matches which on occasions, turns out to be quite irritating for umpires, oppositions and even fans.
India umpire Anil Chaudhary, who has officiated in over 50 international matches across formats, on Saturday opened up on Rizwan’s tendency to appeal frequently, pointing out that he keeps jumping like a pigeon from behind the stumps.
In a YouTube podcast 2 Sloggers, Chaudhary, initially failed to recognise the player when asked about Rizwan by the hosts but then recalled that he once warned his fellow umpire to be aware of Rizwan’s excessive appealing.
“He appeals a lot. I even told my fellow umpire to stay aware. Har ball pe chillata hai (He keeps shouting on every ball). Isn’t he the one who puts something like a lipstick? He keeps jumping like a pigeon. See, fact is a good umpire knows who is a good keeper. If the umpire is good, these keepers are losers. Aur itna technology aa gaya hai, kyun apna beizatti karwa rahein ho? Ulta seedha nikla jayega, toh log aap hi ka mazak udayenge (When technology has evolved so much, why do you have to make yourself look bad? People tend to make fun of such things),” Chaudhary said.
