Womens World Cup: 7-Ball Over Was Bowled During PAKW Vs RSAW As Umpires Missed Ball-Count
It appeared that the on-field umpires, Jacqueline Williams & Sharfuddoula, missed the ball count during the 27th over which led to a 7-ball over being bowled.
An unusual thing happened at the Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui during the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup match between Pakistan women and South Africa women. A seven-ball over (without No-balls or wides) was bowled. It was in the 27th over of the match when Omaima Sohail was bowling to Wolvaardt and Sune Luus.
Pakistan had won the toss and invited South Africa to bat first.
After 26 overs, South African women's score was 87/2. Off-spinner Omaima finished bowling six balls and still bowled another one. It appeared that the on-field umpires, Jacqueline Williams & Sharfuddoula, missed the ball count during the 27th over which led to a 7-ball over being bowled. A single run was taken on the seventh (extra) ball that was bowled.
