🏏 Cricket World Cup 2023: Match #24: Australia vs Netherlands 🏏 - Page 24

23.3 Aryan Dutt to Smith, out Caught by van der Merwe!! This time it's given out and the right call too. Again short and wide outside off, Smith cuts as he leans back, doesn't keep it down, van der Merwe with an uncoventional reverse-cup grip catches it low and this time no doubts as he has the fingers under the ball. Replays too prove that and umpire Marais Erasmus is happy to give it out. The partnership is broken. Smith c van der Merwe b Aryan Dutt 71(68) [4s-9 6s-1]

Aryan Dutt to Smith, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Caught at backward point and again they are checking for a clean catch. This time it's Smith. The fielder has given it out this time and it's van der Merwe again. Looks a clean catch. Umpire Marais Erasmus wants another look at the only angle available. Fingers underneath he says. OUT.

Good innings by Smith

good one

AUS: 162-2 after 24 overs

dont know.It depends on subjective pov of the 3rd umpire.If the umpire thinks a player is in full control of the catch then the umpire can give it out even if it touches the ground

means they can be biased if they want

Two pages dedicated for Smith's dismissal

Smith got some runs,i am happy,he needed the boost and confidence,i think he will play a vital role in the upcoming matches.
