Shocking incident in the 19th over

A shocking incident also happened in the 19th over of the match. Actually, Delhi Capitals batsman Tristan Stubbs wanted to change the gloves, but the fourth umpire refused to give him this opportunity. Tristan Stubbs was not allowed to change gloves and was caught out in the same over. This incident happened at a crucial juncture of the match, when Delhi needed fast runs. Delhi's last hope also ended with Stubbs's dismissal. During this time, Delhi players and coach were also seen arguing with the fourth umpire.

According to the rules, gloves cannot be changed in the ongoing over. Players often remove gloves and wear them again when they become loose due to sweat or change to a new pair altogether. But this is done only after the over is over. However, in case the gloves get torn, they can also be changed mid-over. This decision is in the hands of the fourth umpire only, if he feels that there is a need to change the gloves, only then permission is given.
