The controversy surrounding Deepti Sharma running out England's Charlotte Dean at the non-striker's end in the 3rd ODI seems never-ending. 

After the social media drama, the Indian spinner clarified that the Indian team had warned Dean to stay in her crease. Deepti also admitted that it was their plan as she was doing it repeatedly. 'So, according to the guidelines of the rules we did it.' Deepti also claimed to have informed the umpire before running Dean out. 

However, England skipper Heather Knight, who missed the game with a hip injury, accused India of "lying" about their warnings.

She tweeted, "If they’re comfortable with the decision to affect the run out, India shouldn’t feel the need to justify it by lying about warnings."

Michael Vaughan then jumped into the controversy and said that the umpires should be asked whether a warning was given or not.

But his comment didn't go down well with former Australia pacer Jason Gillespie who replied by saying that there's nothing in the laws that say a warning should ever be given for unfair play. "Play by the laws and the game will take care of itself," he added.
