Marnus Labuschagne's strange catch for Queensland in the Sheffield Shield match against New South Wales has left Twitterati divided. The catch was given out by the umpire but many believed the decision should have been in the batsman's favor.
New South Wales' Baxter Holt went for a big hit off Mitchell Swepson's bowling and ended up getting a thick edge up in the air towards the cover region.
Labuschagne was running back and he did well to take the catch. But as he kept running with the momentum, the ball fell out of his hand and it looked like he had no control over it. However, the umpire didn't change the decision and gave the batsman out.
