Australian batting sensation Marnus Labuschagne lost his temper and showed frustration at an umpire’s call on Saturday. The incident took place in the 12th match of the ongoing Sheffield Shield 2020-21 between Tasmania and Queensland at Bellerive Oval in Hobart.

It all happened in Queensland’s chase of 310 runs in their second innings. Labuschagne was looking set and batting well to take his side over the finish line. However, on the last delivery of the 66th over bowled by Tasmanian Beau Webster, Labuschagne tried to defend the ball, but it passed between him and his bat and went to the wicketkeeper.

The fielding side quickly went up and appealed for an edge. Labuschagne, on the other hand, looked convinced that he had not edged the ball and started walking towards square leg to prepare for the next delivery.

But in between, the batsman saw the Tasmania fielders celebrating and realised that he was given out. Labuschagne couldn’t believe it and ended up showing his frustrated towards the umpire. He expressed his displeasure and brought up his bat up to his head in anger.
