Watch Video: Should both the teams be declared winners if the match is tied?
World Cup 2023: It is common for matches to be tied in cricket matches. Whenever there is a tie, the match is decided after a super over. But in the last World Cup it was seen that the final match was tied twice. Due to this, the team which scored the most boundaries during the innings was declared the winner. Is it right to declare the result of a tied match like this, or in such a situation both the teams should be declared winners. Indian team captain Rohit Sharma has given the right solution for this.
Know what answer Rohit Sharma gave
