The semi-final of the 2003 World Cup was played between Sri Lanka and Australia. The world's most dangerous batsman Adam Gilchrist was present at the crease amid the high pressure match and enthusiasm of the fans. Big opportunity, need of runs for the team and Gilchrist comes into batting. Meanwhile, the ball arrives and there is a light sound, of which even the nearby fielders are not aware. Umpire does not give out if bowlers and fielders make noise. If Gilchrist wanted, he could have stood at the crease and changed the match, but he did not do so. Despite the big stage and millions of dollars at stake, he himself returned to the pavilion. He walked away without any argument, because he knew that the ball had hit the bat.
