Summary: Sanju Samson’s controversial dismissal was celebrated by Parth Jindal in a very animated way, which people noticed, and he got trolled on social media.

Parth Jindal, the owner of the Delhi Capitals, stole the spotlight with his animated farewell to Sanju Samson during Tuesday's match between the Rajasthan Royals and the Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Samson was in top form and appeared to be on track to lead the Royals to victory in a 222-run chase.

But just when things appeared to be going well, Samson was ejected for a dubious catch. The third umpire needed three minutes to reach a decision. While this irritated Samson, Jindal was mocked on social media for his actions.

Samson, who was batting at 86, slammed Mukesh Kumar clean down the pitch but was caught in the deep by Shai Hope. However, in completing the catch, he came unusually close to the boundary line, and some replays showed that the West Indies star may have touched the boundary rope with the ball in his hand.

This didn't go well with Samson, and he had a heated argument with the umpires. The cameras also filmed an intense reaction from DC owner Parth Jindal, who repeatedly shouted "You're Out," but the internet was not thrilled with his reaction.

People on social media had negative opinions about Jindal’s reaction to Samson’s dismissal. One user said, “The IPL committee should first ban Parth Jindal. He is a very stupid man.” While the other wrote, “BCCI should ban Parth Jindal from coming to the stadium. These kinds of people are not made for this beautiful game. Ban this clown. It's a kind request. Please ban him.”

Following the loss, Samson maintained his composure and acknowledged that such events occur in the IPL.

"I believe we had it in our hands; it was 11–12 runs per over, which was manageable; these things happen in the IPL. Yes, we are doing both things well; we will try to stick to what the conditions require; 220 was 10 runs more to chase, the DC opener came out and did what he does, and we still fought back well."
