Another terrible decision by an umpire in an ODI game...

Martin Guptill was given out after a catch on the boundary by the Bangladesh fielder Iqbal when he leaped over the boundary, caught the ball and threw it up, caught it again and landed back in the field of play.

At the time the ACC team argued that it was Not Out, but after a number of replays by the 3rd Umpire, he was given out. Robbing him the chance of scoring his 3rd straight ODI century.

But should he have?

According to the rules, and previous matches he shouldn't have.

Anyone like to explain this playing condition in regards to that catch??? @BLACKCAPS @TheACCnz #NZvBAN pic.twitter.com/xCzHy3Imif

"Six or no Six!?"

What did we make of Mark Chapman's catch-jump-throw-jump-regather last night? #TriSeries pic.twitter.com/6Yhr3HrNhH
