Brisbane Heat's duo of Matt Renshaw and Tom Banton combined to complete an unbelievable catch of Hobart Hurricanes skipper Matthew Wade on Thursday, which left the umpires puzzled.

During the 15th over of the Hurricanes' innings, Wade skied a delivery from all-rounder Ben Cutting towards the long-on boundary, where Matt Renshaw was stationed and attempted the catch. Renshaw had to immediately throw the ball in the air before his running momentum took him beyond the boundary line. However, the ball followed Renshaw over the rope, which forced him to jump, while still being outside field of play, and drag the ball inside to Banton who completed the catch.

The catch caused confusion among the umpires as the third umpire first declared that Wade was not out, before reversing his decision and sending the Hurricanes captain back to the pavilion.

Renshaw, while taking to Fox Sports after the match, explained what was going through his mind while attempting the catch.

“I was just worried about where the rope was and trying it in,” said Renshaw. “They always say play to the whistle in warm-up games. I just tried to play the whistle and keep the ball up and made sure I was in the air. But there was a bit of luck I reckon.”

The decision from third umpire also sparked outrage among fans on social media.
