Trott had no idea about Rohit retiring amid Super Over chaos. Has there ever been two Super Overs? That is what I’m trying to communicate. “It’s kind of like a new… we keep making these new rules,” Trott explained.
The third and final T20I between India and Afghanistan proved to be a dream match. Having already won the series, the Men in Blue enter the match with confidence; yet, the match in Bangalore delivered on a high level and became one of the most memorable.
The game came down to the wire, requiring two Super Overs to determine the winner. Both teams managed 16 runs after the first Super Over, and a moment of mayhem occurred when Indian captain Rohit Sharma intentionally retired himself so Rinku Singh could go and do the necessary.
Speaking of the incident, Afghanistan head coach Jonathan Trott state that he had no knowledge what had occur and that there was no communication.
“I have no notion. Has there ever been two Super Overs? That is what I’m trying to communicate. It’s almost as if we’re always establishing new norms. “What I’m trying to say is that we kept testing the rules and the guidelines,” Trott told the Hindustan Times.

These things will be explain and done in writing in the future: Trott
According to ICC (International Cricket Council) rules. No bowler who has already bowl a Super Over is permit to return for a second if the occasion warrants it. Trott claim that communication between players and officials was at an all-time low.
“It was not communicated; we wanted Azmat to bowl the second over again, and Fareed bowled an excellent over. But those types of things will be explained… because they have happen, they will be discuss and document in the future. If those are the rules, that’s excellent. Trott stated, “I just think we had a good game, and that shouldn’t be the talking point.”
