Shubman Gill was playing after scoring 18 runs. Meanwhile, Scott Boland's ball took the edge of his bat and went towards Cameron Green in the slip. Green bent to the left and caught the ball. On this, the on-field umpire sought help from the third umpire. Third umpire Richard Kettlebrough called the catch out after a long time after watching replays from different angles.

Objecting to the third umpire's decision by posting on social media in the middle of the match may cost Gill heavily. This is a violation of the ICC Code of Conduct. Article 2.7 clearly states that posting on social media is a violation of ICC rules. Now it will be interesting to see what punishment does the ICC give to Shubman Gill?
