So here’s the entire incident. Ahead of the game, team Australia reached the nets and the players were seen sweating it out ahead of the game.

As a result, Australia, could not make way into the finals of the CWC 2019.  The display of the scoreboard surely did not go down well with former Australian pacer Jason Gillespie who took a sly dig at the move on social media.
