Watch: Drama On Field As TV Umpire Says Not Out But Ground Umpire Signals Out

Cricket, the gentlemen's game, sometimes becomes so funny that you can't help but roll on the floor laughing. In one of the funniest incidents that ever happened on a cricket pitch, the TV umpire said not out to an LBW review but the ground umpire mistakenly signalled it out. And this didn't happen in a domestic competition but in an international game. It was the second ODI of the three-match series between South Africa and Australia Women at North Sydney Oval.

It was an LBW appeal from Australia against Sune Luus on the bowling of Ashleigh Gardner. Ground umpire Claire Polosak gave it not out initially before Australia went upstairs. TV umpire Sue Redfern found out that the ball was pitched outside off stump and the impact was also well outside it.

"Pitching outside off, impact outside. Back to Claire on field, please. Stay with not out. Stand by. Signal not out now," said the TV umpire. During this the camera re-focused on ground umpire Claire, who mistakenly raised her finger to give it out. She soon realised her mistake and changed her signal.

Talking about the game, Kapp displayed a stellar performance to power South Africa's women to clinch their maiden ODI win over Australia in Sydney on Wednesday and kept them alive in the 50-over series.

Kapp's 75-run knock from 87 balls was the main talking point of South Africa's batting performance. Apart from Kapp, Anneke Bosch's (44 runs from 46 balls) and Chloe Tryon's (37 runs from 36 balls) blitz helped the Proteas to put 229/6 on the scoreboard.

Australia had a perfect start to the game by dismissing Laura Wolvaardt for a duck and Tazmin Brits for 21 runs off 41
