Former Blackcap and commentator Ian Smith has been stumped over one "bizarre" decision in New Zealand's 99-run World Cup victory against the Netherlands.
Forty overs had ticked by and New Zealand were hunting three more wickets for victory, when Rachin Ravindra appeared to have Sybrand Engelbrecht stumped with a wide delivery.
That left Netherlands 197/8 in their pursuit of their target of 323.
Celebrations had begun for Ravindra, who looked to have picked up his second wicket thanks to quick work behind the stumps from stand-in captain Tom Latham.
However, Engelbrecht's walk back to the sheds was surprisingly cut short, as he was told to wait while the third umpire Joel Wilson checked something.
Upon review of the replays, it was ruled that the tips of Latham's gloves were not behind the stumps before he made the catch.
"He's not wholly behind the stumps, so I have a no ball," the third umpire said.
It was a call that infuriated commentator Ian Smith.
"Well, I've got to say, as a former keeper, that's the most bizarre thing I've ever seen," said Smith. "That is just crazy.
"When the ball went into his gloves they were clearly, clearly behind the stumps. It might have been initially in front but when the ball into the gloves, clearly behind the stumps.
"It's becoming like rugby union - the officials can't stay out of it."
The laws of the game state that the wicketkeeper "shall remain wholly behind the wicket at the striker's end from the moment the ball comes into play until a ball delivered by the bowler".
Should the wicketkeeper breach this rule, that delivery results in a no ball.
Ultimately, the decision had no bearing on the match, with Engelbrecht dismissed four overs later as the Netherlands were bowled out for 223.
New Zealand will now turn their attention to Bangladesh on Friday (NZ time) in Chennai.
