• After this announcement, Indian fans were disappointed once again. India and Australia (IND vs AUS) will face each other in Super 8. This match will be held on 24 June and Richard Kettleborough and Richard Illingworth will be the umpires of this match.

Richard Kettleborough unlucky for India

• Both Richard Kettleborough and Richard Illingworth are known as the best umpires in world cricket.
• But out of these two, Kettleborough's name has been unlucky for India.
  Because Richard Kettleborough and Team India's playing in ICC knockouts have not gone well.
• In the language of fans, Kettleborough has been unlucky for Team India. From the 2014 World Cup semi-final to the 2023 ODI World Cup, India has lost the knockout matches in which Kettleborough has umpired.

Richard Kettleborough has proved lucky for Australia

• On one hand, Richard Kettleborough proved unlucky for India, on the other hand, he proved lucky for Australia.
• Kettleborough was the umpire when Australia defeated India in the 2015 World Cup.

• The same thing happened in the 2021 T20 World Cup final. The special thing is that Australia's luck opened in the semi-finals and finals of the ODI World Cup 2023.
• Because of this, the restlessness of the fans has increased as soon as they hear Kettleborough's name.
  It remains to be seen whether luck favors Australia in the Super 8 round of the T20 World Cup (T20 World Cup 2024) or not.
