Aussie superstar Marnes Labushan criticized the umpiring following losing the match once morest South Africa. Labuschwan came once morest the dismissal of Marcus Stoinis and Steve Smith in the match.
Marcus Stoinis was dismissed by wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock caught by Kagiso Rabada. Stoinis gets out following scoring five runs in four balls. But Labuschran says it is not out and the third umpire, Richard Kettlebrough, may have made a mistake.
“The umpires don’t know what happened there. They saw what we saw. He was not holding the bat when the ball hit the glove. They didn’t even check the side on angle because it hit the glove.
Marcus (Marcus Stoinis) and I asked if you checked it properly. Then they showed us the spike in the Ultra Edge.
I felt there was a clear gap between the bat and the glove. I have been to the third umpire’s room. There you can see the visuals more clearly on a bigger screen,’ said Labushan.
‘Everyone saw what happened. There was talk that maybe the ball hit the handle of the bat. There is confusion regarding this. We hope to get clarification on this matter, or we will ask for it.
It’s the World Cup. Some decisions can change the success or failure of the games. In this case it would certainly have changed the outcome of the match. Hopefully this will be fixed in the future,’ Labushan said.
After losing the toss and batting in the match, South Africa posted a total of 311 runs on the strength of Quinton de Kock’s century. Chasing a huge target, Australia were bowled out for 177 runs.
The loss saw South Africa jump to the top spot, while the Aussies slipped to ninth. Only Afghanistan is behind Aussies.
Australia’s next match is on October 16. Aussies will face Sri Lanka in the match in Lucknow.
