"Looks High To Me": England Legends Not Happy With DRS Over Ollie Pope Dismissal

England batter Ollie Pope's dismissal on Day 2 of the third Test match against India in Rajkot on Friday ruled in a minor controversy with England legends expressing their displeasure at the DRS decision. In the 30th over of the England innings, Mohammed Siraj trapped Pope LBW but the umpire thought that the ball was missing the stumps However, Rohit opted for a DRS review and the replay showed that the ball was crashing into the leg stump. However, former England cricketers Stuart Broad and Michael Vaughan were not happy with the decision and took to social media to express their opinions.

Meanwhile, Ben Duckett's power-packed hundred overshadowed Ravichandran Ashwin's monumental feat as England thrived on their belligerent Bazball tactic to reach 207/2 at stumps on Day 2.

Ashwin dismissed Zak Crawley (15) in the final session to join Anil Kumble as the second Indian, and fifth overall, to take 500 wickets in Test history.

That looked High to me …

But India's struggles to contain England's fearless and enterprising batters persisted as Duckett raced to his third Test hundred off only 88 balls.

England have already wiped off a chunk of their first innings deficit and trail India by 238 runs going into day three. India ended up with 445 in their first innings. At one stage, Duckett even flirted briefly with the prospect of breaking Gilbert Jessop's record from 1902 for fastest Test ton (77 balls) for his country.
