The umpires on-field failed to notice the discrepancy and allowed the 7-ball over to get completed. Shocked fans took to twitter to share their thoughts on the incident.

'Umpires Favouring India'
Every time India play Pakistan in a World Cup match the umpires ALWAYS favour India. Today Pakistan had to bowl a 7 ball over. And the extra ball went for 4 runs. Crazy stuff?♂️ #INDvPAK #T20WorldCup2023 pic.twitter.com/yICI221IQS

Commentators Spotted the 7-Ball Over
So, there was a 7-ball over as the commentators spotted & both umpires got it wrong from Ball #4 which they thought was Ball #3.
The 7th ball was then hit for a 4. Pakistan would hope it doesn't come to haunt them back either with the result today, or the NRR later.
