WTC Final: Cameron Green’s catch sparks controversy
Coming in to chase the target of 444 runs, team India looked keen on starting off their second innings well. As Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill took a strike, both batters got off to a good start.
However, Scott Boland struck once again, as Gill was sent packing for 18 runs in 19 deliveries. Gill was dismissed on the first ball of the eighth over after he nicked the ball straight into Cameron Green’s hands. Following his dismissal, Rohit Sharma could not help but hide his frustration, as he was very disappointed following Gill’s wicket.
However, Shubman Gill’s dismissal attracted a lot of controversy as well. Many opined that the ball touched the ground when Green caught it. Although, the ultimate decision was Gill being given out. Gill was unable to impress with his performance in the first innings. It was Scott Boland who sent him packing, and once again Boland’s delivery dismissed Gill.
