Overview
- Speaking on the Unfiltered Podcast, Ambati Rayudu said a chair and screen used by world‑feed broadcasters pushed the boundary rope back during a break and it was not reset.
- He said the altered placement left the boundary slightly larger when Suryakumar Yadav caught David Miller in the T20 World Cup 2024 final.
- Rayudu, part of the commentary team that day, described it as a clean dismissal and did not suggest any change to the match’s outcome.
- Asked whether the shot would have been a six with the rope in its usual position, Suryakumar said he did not know and suggested he might have started his run from further in.
- The rope’s positioning was questioned immediately after the final, and Rayudu’s account offers an eyewitness explanation of how the boundary shifted without indicating any formal review.
