Controversial Dismissal of Shubman Gill Sparks Debate: Pakistani Player Slams Cameron Green and Richard Kettleborough

The dismissal of Shubman Gill during the World Test Championship Final between India and Australia has ignited a heated discussion among cricket fans and experts.

The dismissal of Shubman Gill during the highly anticipated World Test Championship (WTC) Final between India and Australia has ignited intense debates among cricket enthusiasts and experts alike. Gill nicked a delivery from Scott Boland, and the catch taken by Cameron Green at third slip has divided opinions, leaving the cricketing world divided. Replays provided inconclusive evidence as to whether the ball had made contact with the ground upon impact, leading many experts to argue that the review should have favored India.

Former Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria has joined the chorus of support for Gill, firmly stating that in such a crucial match, the decision should have unequivocally been “not out.” Kaneria expressed his views on his YouTube channel, deeming Gill’s dismissal highly controversial. He believed that the third umpire should have adjudicated the catch as not out, as it appeared evident that the ball had grazed the grass before being secured.

Adding fuel to the fire, Gill incurred penalties following the ICC World Test Championship final against Australia. The entire Indian team faced a 100% penalty for maintaining a slow over-rate in the title decider. Furthermore, Gill himself received an additional 15% fine of his match fee due to his dissent towards the third umpire’s decision that led to his dismissal in the second innings. Consequently, Gill’s effective fine amounted to a hefty 115%.
