"Ball Clearly Missing Stumps": Ben Stokes' Bold DRS Verdict After England's 434-Run Loss In Rajkot
England captain Ben Stokes isn't a happy man, having seen his side suffer one of its biggest defeats in the history of the game. As India came out on top in the third Test at Rajkot, securing a 434-run victory to go 2-1 up in the 5-match series, Stokes was left to rue some dubious LBW calls that left him and head coach Brendon McCullum bemused. The "umpire's call" in the DRS system is a factor that has been debated around for a long time, with several cricketing personalities wanting the ICC to do away with it. Stokes, citing the example of Zak Crawley's LBW dismissal in the second innings to Jasprit Bumrah, suggested the same and even had a chat with the technology maker's people to understand the scope of the error.
