When the God of cricket was abused


The name of David Shepherd's cricket world, who umpired in 92 Tests. He was the only umpire to officiate in the 6th World Cup. Today tell you about his birthday, some issues related to him--

This English umpire had said goodbye at the age of 68, 8 years before fighting cancer. There are many tales related to Shepherd's life, but since the 2003 World Cup, the entire world of cricket was shocked. During the match between India and Pakistan, Shahid Afridi had also abused the likes of Sachin-Sehwag and umpiring David Shepherd.

In fact, following the target of Pakistan's 274 runs, Sachin-Sehwag gave India a stormy start. Both of them bowled 50 runs in 32 balls. Shahid Afridi gave the abusive speech, not only Afridi but also said that he was abusive at David Shepherd, who was umpiring at that time. However, Afridi had to pay a heavy price for this mistake. He had to pay 50 percent of the match fee for this.

Also, in addition to that, there was a ban for one ODI match apart from this. Then Tendulkar's 98 runs innings played a key role in the victory of Team India. His superstition during Shepherd's umpiring Nelson Dance has been very famous. Whenever a team reached the score of 111, 222, 333, Shepherd used to raise one leg several times in the air. He considered Nelson's score as a bad score.

He believed that besides Shepherd on Friday, whenever he used to fall on Friday, he used to match the matches on his finger. In such a way, touching the girl came from a bunch of them, that was their belief.
