Ishan Kishan vs Mumbai Indians in 2025
Kishan attempted to glance a delivery from Deepak Chahar that was drifting down leg. He appeared to miss it entirely, and not a single MI player appealed.
The umpire initially signaled a wide, but as Kishan walked off voluntarily, the signal changed to out. Later, replays and Ultra Edge revealed no spike as the ball passed the bat. Yet, Kishan라이브 바카라 decision to walk, unprompted and unchallenged, reignited the long-standing debate around ethics in cricket.
Adam Gilchrist vs Sri Lanka in 2003
Adam Gilchrist라이브 바카라 decision to walk in the 2003 World Cup semi-final against Sri Lanka remains one of the most iconic acts of sportsmanship in cricket. Opening the innings with Matthew Hayden, Gilchrist attempted a sweep off Aravinda de Silva.
The umpire turned down the appeal, but Gilchrist, convinced he had edged it, walked back without hesitation.
Virat Kohli vs Pakistan in 2019
Virat Kohli, known for his intense competitiveness, also showed his moral compass in the 2019 ICC World Cup during a high-voltage match against Pakistan. In the 48th over of India라이브 바카라 innings, Kohli attempted to pull a short ball from Mohammad Amir.
He believed he had nicked it and walked off, despite the umpire not giving him out. Replays later confirmed there was no contact between bat and ball; the sound had come from the click of the bat handle. Kohli, who was batting in the 70s and heading towards a century, sacrificed a potentially game-defining knock in the name of fairness.
Rangana Herath vs England in 2014
Another unforgettable walk came from Rangana Herath during a Test match between England and Sri Lanka at Lord라이브 바카라 in 2014. With the match on a knife라이브 바카라 edge and Sri Lanka fighting to survive the final over, Stuart Broad bowled a bouncer that grazed Herath라이브 바카라 glove.
But crucially, his glove had come off the bat handle — meaning he wasn't technically out. Still, Herath walked without waiting for the umpire. The umpire, seeing the movement, raised his finger. Sri Lanka still had a review left, but Herath chose not to use it. The dismissal became the turning point, helping England snatch a dramatic win.
Kumar Sangakkara vs Indian in 2010
Kumar Sangakkara, one of cricket라이브 바카라 most graceful ambassadors, too chose to walk in a significant Test match moment. During the 2010 series between India and Sri Lanka, he edged a delivery to the wicketkeeper. The umpire didn’t raise his finger. But Sangakkara, without a second thought, walked off.
