WTC Final 2023: Shubman Gill takes a dig at umpires after Cameron Green`s controversial catch

Shubman Gill took a dig at the third umpire and Camron Green after a controversial catch led to the opener’s dismissal on Day 4 of the World Test Championship (WTC) final 2023 between India and Australia.

Chasing a target of 444, India were off to a quick start with 41 runs coming in the first seven overs, however, the first setback came on the fist delivery of the eighth over when pacer Scott Boland found the outside edge of Gill which was taken by Cameron Green at gully.

This didn’t go down well with Indian cricketers and fans. Captain Rohit Sharma was visibly angry with Kettleborough’s decision while the Indian fans directed chants of ‘cheat cheat’ at Green at The Oval.

Gill has now shared a screenshot of the catch where it looks like the ball may have touched the ground.
