Caught Out: Crime. Corruption. Cricket. serves primarily as an institutional critique rather than a study of identity. It succeeds by centering a non-Western perspective, moving the spotlight from Western sports media to the internal dynamics of Indian cricket. The film disrupts traditional heroic sports narratives by focusing on systemic failure and the journalists who expose it. While it lacks explicit focus on LGBTQ+ or disability themes, it provides a localized, authentic exploration of power. Ultimately, the documentary's strength lies in its cultural authenticity and its willingness to scrutinize the integrity of a major global sporting institution.
