Team India’s young opener Shubman Gill was controversially ruled out in the second innings of the WTC 2023 final on Day 3 by third umpire Richard Kettleborough. After his dismissal, Gill shared the pictures of his catch grabbed by Cameron Green and took a subtle dig at the third umpire.

Team India needed a strong start as they were asked to chase down a mammoth target of 444 runs set by the Australian side. Skipper Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill started off positively and played their shots right from the word go.

The Indian openers added 41 runs for the first wicket in just 7 overs after which Australian pacer Scott Boland came in to bowl the 8th over of the Indian innings. He bowled a good length delivery around the fifth stump line which took the edge of Gill’s bat and flew towards Cameron Green stationed at gully.

Green took an absolutely brilliant catch but the on-field umpires referred the catch to the third umpire, Richard Kettleborough. From certain camera angles, it appeared as if the ball had grazed the grass but Kettleborough was convinced that the catch was taken cleanly.

Richard Kettleborough stated that Cameron Green’s fingers were underneath the ball and hence ruled Gill out. However, it didn’t look like he had any conclusive evidence of it being a clean catch and still didn’t give the benefit of the doubt to the Indian opening batter.

After his controversial dismissal, Shubman Gill took to Instagram and posted the picture of the catch taken by Cameron Green and added 4 clap emojis in a sarcastic manner showing his disappointment over the dismissal. He also shared the same picture on his Twitter account where two ‘lens’ emojis and one ‘facepalm’ emoji and took a subtle dig at the third umpire.

Gill’s Instagram Story

Gill’s early dismissal made things tougher for Team India as they wanted a big opening partnership in order to chase down the target of 444 runs. The Indian team then faced the setbacks of losing skipper Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara in a quick succession allowing Australia to get into the driver’s seat.

After losing 3 wickets on Day 3, Team India’s experienced batters Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane settled down the Indian ship. The two middle-order batters formed a crucial partnership of 71 runs for the fourth wicket taking India to a total of 164-3 at the end of Day 3 of the WTC final 2023.
