India batter Yashasvi Jaiswal's controversial dismissal on Day 5 of the 4th Test against Australia has become a hot topic of debate. The incident happened on the fifth ball of the 71st over.

His dismissal in the second innings, however, triggered a huge controversy, with the third umpire deciding to overturn the on-field umpire's call despite Snicko not showing a spike.

As on-field umpire Joel Wilson did not uphold the appeal, it was referred to the third umpire.
