Watch: Australia Wicket-Keeper Booed By Crowd After Claiming Grounded Catch vs England
Australian cricket team wicket-keeper Josh Inglis was booed by the crowd at the Lord's Cricket Ground after he claimed a grounded catch during the fourth ODI encounter against England on Friday. During the 17th over of the England innings, Harry Brook edged a delivery from Mitchell Starc and the ball flew towards the wicket-keeper behind the stumps. Inglis dived to his left to complete the catch and the umpire raised his finger in a moment. However, the catch was referred to the third umpire and replays showed that the ball actually bounced just in front of Inglis before he took the catch. The crowd was not pleased as they saw the replay and they booed to show dissent at the unsportsmanlike behaviour.
