Harmanpreet Kaur-led India infliced a 3-0 whitewash over hosts England by winning the third and final ODI by 16 runs at Lord's on September 24 (Saturday). In a low-scoring thriller, India were dismissed for a paltry 169 in 45.4 overs after being asked to bat first. In reply, the Indian bowlers stood tall and reduced England to 118-9 before Charlie Dean-Freya Davies' last-wicket stand kept England alive in the run-chase.
In the 44th over of the run-chase, all-rounder Deepti Sharma dismissed Charlie by running her out as the English batter kept leaving her crease at the non-striker's end at regular intervals during her knock. Seeing the batter taking advantage by leaving the crease beforehand, Deepti pulled off a run-out to take India to a 16-run win in Jhulan Goswami's farewell game.
While the run-out is clearly within the laws of the game, the dismissal sparked a huge debate online. On her return to India, Deepti told reporters that Harman & Co. had warned Charlie for leaving the crease before they pulled off a run-out. Now, Charlie Dean (who was dismissed for 35) has finally reacted to her dismissal.
In a post on Instagram, Charlie hinted at accepting her fault. Posting a number of pictures from the iconic game at Lord's , she captioned, "An interesting end to the summer. What an honour it is to play at lords in England colours. I guess I’ll just stay in my crease from now on."
