Netizens came up with hilarious memes to describe the situation.
A peculiar turn of events featuring Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh occurred during the IPL 2022 match between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), which the former lost by six runs.
Before being dismissed by Krishnappa Gowtham, the 30-year-old batted at number three and scored 37 runs off 20 balls. Marsh was caught behind by Quinton de Kock and walked after being given out by the umpire.
But the TV replay showed no spike on the snickometer, but Marsh had already returned to the dugout without even contesting the call because Delhi still had reviews to go through.

Former India opener Wasim Jaffer, who is known for his funny use of memes, had a similarly amusing take on the dismissal.
Taking to Twitter, Jaffer shared an image from the film Munna Bhai M.B.B.S., showing how Marsh's actions were the polar opposite of most Australian players.
Australian cricketers are noted for not walking even when they are out unless the umpire gives them out.
Marsh's choice to walk despite not making contact with the ball sparked a rush of amusing memes on social media.
Here are a few of them:
