Former West Indies cricketer Ian Bishop has given his take on Jason Holder's controversial catch in the dismissal of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) captain Rajat Patidar during the IPL clash against Gujarat Titans (GT), saying that there was sufficient evidence to rule it not out and the umpire must have taken a second look before making the final decision.
During the first innings when RCB were trying to build a solid platform, in the eighth over, Patidar, who was batting on 19, attempted to play a pull shot to increase the scoring rate. Holder stationed at deep backward square leg charged to his right and took a fine low catch. Rabada too was charging across to take it, but Holder managed to ignore that.
