The ongoing Tata Indian Premier League 2026 (Tata IPL 2026) recently witnessed a strange and bizarre moment during the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, which took social media by storm.<\/p>\n
The whole controversy started when an SRH fan was seen doing the “lemon trick” in the crowd just before the wicket of Shivam Dubey. At first, it seemed like a random act, but what happened next sparked a bizarre debate around “paranormal practices” in the game of cricket.<\/p>\n
At that time, Chennai Super Kings were still trying hard to chase 195 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Shivam Dubey (21 runs on 16 balls) was batting well and the team needed 41 runs on 20 balls. CSK still had chances, but the game suddenly changed in Hyderabad.<\/p>\n

But later, reports revealed that the letter was fake, both IPL GC and CSK are yet to respond to that letter.<\/p>\n Now this matter has been made more interesting by former IPL chairman Lalit Modi.
