Australian skipper Pat Cummins’ strange termination versus South Africa described after hot-spot stop working and Snicko ‘spot’

Australia and Channel 7 analysts have actually been left scratching their heads on Day 3 of the Boxing Day Test versus South Africa after a questionable call by the 3rd umpire. Following the early terminations of Travis Head and David Warner, who went back to the crease after retiring hurt over night with cramps, captain Pat Cummins was going after fast runs when he was provided captured behind in unusual situations.

See, Stream & Catch Up with Australia’s Home of Cricket on 7plus >> Cummins had actually just scored 4 runs when the South African’s increased in a huge appeal for captured behind. The choice was provided not out by umpire Paul Reiffel and the Proteas evaluated the choice to the 3rd umpire, Chris Gaffaney. The ball was bowled from back of a length at off stump and appeared to miss out on the outdoors edge of Cummins’ bat as no mark was exposed on ‘hot-spot’ and ‘Snicko’ revealed no spike as the ball passed by the bat, with a spike appearing one frame past the bat.

Previous umpire Simon Taufel discussed to the bemused Channel 7 commentary group that it was ‘definitely’ the proper choice. “In assessment with the innovation service providers, we did establish a definitive proof procedure and part of that procedure has actually got some redundancy developed into that so ‘Hotspot’ does not constantly reveal us a mark,” Taufel stated. “When it does not reveal us a mark we go back to actual time ‘Snicko’ in this specific case and Chris Gaffney (3rd umpire) used the definitive proof procedure properly. FULL SCOREBOARD All the statistics from Day 3 of Australia v South Africa “There was a spike as the ball passed by the bat at one frame past the bat, which enables a bit of a timing hold-up as sound journeys towards the stump microphone so Chris Gaffney as 3rd umpire definitely well and really got that area on with that spike.” In commentary, Tim Lane responded: “You’re calling it a spike. I ‘d call it a spot. Exists a distinction?” Pat Cummins enjoys a replay of his termination on the cinema after he was provided by the 3rd umpire.
