During the ICC World Test Championship final at the Oval in London on Saturday, Shubman Gill, the Indian batter, faced dismissal in the second innings. Australia's seamer, Scott Boland, managed to find Gill's outside edge in the eighth over of India's massive 444-run chase. As the ball flew towards him, Cameron Green, the fielder, made a leap to his right and caught the ball in an inconclusive manner.

It was a great effort from Cameron Green but it is the moment immediately after the catch is taken, when the hand turns, that must cause Shubman Gill to be very disappointed.

Cameron Green pulls out another outstanding catch to remove Shubhman Gill. At Tea, India are 41/1, needs 403 more runs to win this game. #WTCFinal #WTC2023 pic.twitter.com/qXhfnCZmFE

What's 3rd umpire has done ?
Ball clearly touched the ground and hand was not below it. _

The on-field umpires, Chris Gaffaney and Richard Illingworth, decided to refer the catch to the third umpire, Richard Kettleborough. After reviewing multiple replays, Kettleborough ruled the catch as clean. However, the live footage failed to provide a clear view of whether the tall Australian had successfully avoided the grass while his left hand grazed the ground after making contact with the ball.
This dismissal occurred right before Tea, leaving India at 41 for one after 7.1 overs. It sparked numerous debates on social media regarding the validity of the catch.
