Why Soft-Signal Rule Didn't Come Into Play In Shubman Gill's Dismissal During WTC Final
Shubman Gill's dismissal on the final ball of the second session became one of the biggest talking points on Day 4 of the ongoing World Test Championship (WTC) on Saturday. The question on everyone's lips was: why wasn't the soft dismissal call made? Shubman Gill's edge off Scott Boland flew close to Cameron Green in the slips. The tall all-rounder dived towards his left to take a low catch. However, at first glance, there appeared to be some doubt over whether or not the ball touched the ground before Green took the one-handed catch. Amid the uncertainty on whether the catch was clean, the matter was referred to television umpire Richard Kettleborough.
