Aus vs Ind, 2nd Test: Gavaskar Raises Question On Umpires Call After Smith's Dismissal

By IANS News December 28, 2020 • 11:40 AM View: 2229

Former India skipper Sunil Gavaskar has questioned the 'Umpires Call' clause in the Decision Review System, lending credence to Sachin Tendulkar's opinion that the International Cricket Council (ICC) needs to reassess it.

"I think the Steve Smith dismissal shows that even when the ball clips the stumps, its speed is so much that it can remove the bails. If you are appealing for leg-before wicket and if the ball is going to clip the stumps, the speed is such, even spinner's, that the bails will come off," said Gavaskar to ABC Sport.
