An incident happened during the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 match between India and Sri Lanka at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai after the umpire signalled a dead ball after the Sri Lankan opener Pathum Nissanka hit a six off Indian spinner Varun Chakaravarthy's delivery. The incident happened during the third ball of the 10th over. Pathum Nissanka played a lofted shot towards the long-on region, and Axar Patel dropped the catch and palmed it over the boundary ropes for a six. However, the umpire, Izatullah Safi, signalled for a dead ball because Indian fielder Abhishek Sharma was not off the field by the time the ball was about to be delivered by Varun Chakaravarthy. On-field umpire Izatullah Safi spotted it and made the right call. Pathum Nissanka Breaks Virat Kohli's Record of Most 50-Plus Scores in Asia Cup T20 Tournament, Achieves Feat During IND vs SL Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 Match.
