After defending a full serve, Rizwan seemed unhappy with the move near the screen and immediately raised an issue with the umpire. Goalkeeper Litton Das was quick to intervene, leading to a brief but lively verbal confrontation between the two players.Watch:According to a conversation on the field captured during the broadcast, Litton asked Rizwan, “What are you doing?” Rizwan responded by pointing to the background area and saying, “Look, he’s standing there.” Litton then replied, “Why are you looking over there? Focus on batting here.”The exchange became more intense as Rizwan fired back: “Is it your job, mine or the referee’s?”Referee Allahudien Paleker quickly intervened to calm the situation before play resumed without further ado.
