In a dramatic moment during the Indian Premier League match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), Angkrish Raghuvanshi was dismissed for obstructing the field, making him only the fourth player in IPL history to face this rare fate. The incident occurred on the final ball of the fifth over when Raghuvanshi, after nudging the ball towards mid-on, was instructed by teammate Cameron Green to turn back. In doing so, he stepped into the path of a throw from LSG's Mohammed Shami, which struck him as he attempted to dive back to the crease. Despite his protests, the third umpire upheld the appeal, leading to KKR being in a precarious position at 27 for 3. The 'obstructing the field' law states that a batsman can be given out if they significantly change direction while running, thus obstructing a fielder's attempt to effect a run-out. The first instance of this dismissal in IPL history occurred in 2013 with Yusuf Pathan, followed by Amit Mishra in 2019 and Ravindra Jadeja in 2024. This rare dismissal highlights the complexities of cricket's rules and their impact on the game.
