Batting at the Eden Gardens, Parag and Co needed 207 runs to win as they struggled in the middle overs. However, the decisive moment arrived in the 13th over when Parag hit five consecutive sixes against Moeen Ali. He initially hit four sixes before Ali bowled a wide ball, but it could not break Parag&rsquo;s momentum as he scored another six on the last ball of the over. This meant Ali gave away 32 runs in the 13th over, the second most expensive in IPL 2025. <o:p></o:p>

Clock time controversy took centre stage in the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) contest between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Saturday (May 3). CSK batter Dewald Brevis was asked to walk out after the timer did not appear on the screen and ground and tried challenging an LBW decision. The decision has sparked new controversy in the IPL 2025 as netizens kept a close eye on the issue.
<h2 class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">What sparked the controversy?<o:p></o:p></h2>
On the third ball of the 17th over, Lungi Ngidi&rsquo;s ball came as a surprise for South African batter Brevis as he was given LBW out. A high full-toss and sliding down leg, Brevis flicked and missed, and the ball rapped on the pads while it was easily missing leg-stump. <o:p></o:p>
However, he was given out by on-field umpire Nitin Menon. Brevis took his time as he checked with Jadeja while there was no timer shown on screen. Even Jadeja was having a look at the giant screen as he chatted with Brevis. <o:p></o:p>
Meanwhile, a direct-hit too at the bowler's end took attention but Brevis was in. Ngidi on the other hand was seen pumped as he did the double fist-pump. <o:p></o:p>
As a result of the doubt, Brevis decided to challenge the LBW call but was denied using DRS since umpire Nitin Menon thought the time had expired, while it never appeared on the screen.<o:p></o:p>

<h2 class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Who is to be blamed for controversy - big screen clock or umpire or players?</h2>
As things stand, it appears to be a technology failure at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Since the clock never appeared on the screens, it is hard to guess whether the batters were at fault for challenging the decision late. On the other hand, umpires could be at partial fault as they denied Brevis to take DRS despite them having the aid to check with a third umpire. <o:p></o:p>
<h2 class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">RCB beat CSK in a thriller<o:p></o:p></h2>
While the match was merged with controversy, RCB beat CSK by two runs in the final over in Bengaluru. MS Dhoni was dismissed in the final over while Ayush Mhatre scored a great 94-run knock before he was dismissed. Ravindra Jadeja also contributed with a 77-run knock but could not prevent CSK&rsquo;s ninth defeat of IPL 2025. On the other hand, RCB are top of the table with 16 points and have one foot in the Playoffs.<o:p></o:p>

Unai Emery vowed Aston Villa will fight until the end for a place in the Champions League after boosting their bid with a 1-0 win against Fulham on Saturday.
Emery's side are back in the hunt to finish in the Premier League's top five thanks to Youri Tielemans' 12th-minute header at Villa Park.
Seventh-placed Villa extended their unbeaten run on home turf to 20 games in all competitions, lifting them level with sixth-placed Nottingham Forest and fifth-placed Chelsea on 60 points.
After bouncing back from their dismal FA Cup semi-final loss to Crystal Palace last weekend, Villa will hope their rivals falter over the weekend as the top five race heads for a dramatic climax.
"If we weren't winning today, forget it completely," Emery said.
"Today, we got more or less to be close to Europe. Wow, fantastic, brilliant. The best gift we can achieve after it is the Europa League or Champions League.
"Champions League, okay. We are not favourites to get it because there is Nottingham Forest in front of us, Manchester City, Chelsea and Newcastle.
"But we will fight for it, Europe, and hopefully we can fight for the Champions League."
Southampton wasted a chance to avoid a share of the lowest points total in Premier League history as Jamie Vardy's 199th Leicester goal inspired a 2-0 win at the King Power Stadium.
Simon Rusk's bottom of the table team are trying to avoid finishing with just 11 points -- which would match Derby's low mark set in 2007-08.
But Southampton's hopes of getting a 12th point quickly faded against fellow relegated side Leicester.

<h2>Ipswich fightback</h2>
After announcing last week that he will leave the club at the end of the season, the 38-year-old Vardy bagged a farewell goal as he put second-bottom Leicester ahead in the 17th minute.
The game was delayed for 11 minutes when referee David Webb was forced off with a head injury after colliding with Leicester's Jordan Ayew.
Vardy cheekily blew the referee's whistle while he was being treated.
Leicester finally won for the first time since January as Ayew grabbed the second goal in the 44th minute.
Southampton have now lost 28 of their 35 league games and have three matches left to avoid sharing the low points record with Derby.
Relegated Ipswich fought back from two goals down to draw 2-2 in Everton's penultimate match at Goodison Park.
Kieran McKenna's third-bottom side trailed to Beto's 26th minute goal and Dwight McNeil's effort nine minutes later.
But Julio Enciso 's 30-yard rocket reduced the deficit in the 41st minute and George Hirst equalised with 11 minutes left.
Everton's emotional last match at Goodison before moving to their new Bramley-Moore Dock stadium next season comes against Southampton on May 18.
Second-placed Arsenal host Bournemouth in Saturday's late game as the Gunners warm up for their Champions League semi-final showdown with Paris Saint-Germain.
Mikel Arteta's side lost 1-0 in the first leg on Tuesday and head to France for the second leg on Wednesday as they look to reach the final for the first time since 2006.

Leeds United&rsquo;s Manor Solomon scored a stoppage-time winner as they won the Championship (second division of English football) title on Saturday (May 3).
