Despite the technology clearly showing that the short run given was indeed a wrong decision, the TV umpire Paul Reiffel failed to intervene and that cost a very important one run to KL Rahul’s Kings XI Punjab who later tied the game with Delhi Capitals and lost the Super Over to Shreyas Iyer’s team.

Sehwag took a dig at the poor decision by the square leg umpire and said he should have been awarded the Man of the Match for calling the 'short-run'. "I don’t agree with the man of the match choice. The umpire who gave this short run should have been man of the match. Short Run nahin tha. And that was the difference," Sehwag wrote on Twitter with a picture of Jordan's run where the bat can be clearly seen over the crease.

KXIP owner Preity Zinta was also not happy with the decision and asked the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to introduce new rules.

Chopra and former Delhi Daredevils coach Trent Woodhill also criticised the umpiring and that technology wasn’t used.
