DRS controversy erupts in Ashes as Alex Carey survives caught-behind appeal, operator takes ‘full responsibility’ while England indicate escalation | Cricket News
England were left fuming at the end of Dayn 1 of the third Ashes Test in Adelaide after Australia’s Alex Carey survived after the “Snicko” review technology failed to pick up an apparent nick off the wicketkeeper-batter’s bat. Carey went on to score a century before falling on 106 off 143 balls. Notably, Carey himself admitted that there may have been an edge and the technology should’ve picked it up while England bowling coach David Saker indicated that the visitors may raise the matter with the match officials. “The boys are pretty confident he hit it. I think the calibration of the ‘Snicko’ is out,” the Australian told reporters after England toiled through a sweltering day in the field. Australia were 326/8 at Stumps. “It was a pretty important decision. Those things hurt.
