IPL 2025: Three KKR Players' Bats Fail Gauge Test In PBKS Clash
Three Kolkata Knight Riders: Three Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) players, Sunil Narine, Andre Russell and Anrich Nortje's bats failed the gauge test during the IPL 2025 game against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Mullanpur on Tuesday.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) had put in a protocol for umpires to be issued a bat gauge in 2017, which they can use to check a bat’s legality in international cricket matches. The random on-field check of bats has now become a routine affair for the remainder of the IPL 2025 to maintain fairness in the matches.
Ahead of the KKR's chase of 112, when KKR openers Narine and Angkrish Raghuvanshi's bats were checked by reserve umpire Saiyed Khalid outside the playing arena and the former's bat failed the gauge test as the thickest part of his bat wouldn't pass through the gauge while Raghuvanshi's bat cleared the test.
