Green, the bowler, collected Virat Kohli's throw from the deep, but may or may not have had the ball in his grasp while breaking the stumps. The TV umpire, Anil Chaudhary, however, concluded that Green was in control of the ball and gave Jurel out.

Law 29.2.1.5 - dealing with "breaking the wicket fairly" - considers it a valid dismissal provided "that the ball is held in the hand or hands so used, or in the hand of the arm so used" to break the stumps. Since the pictures did not conclusively show Green in control over the ball, there was debate.

"The key word is 'held'," he said, referring to the law. "And I think when the stump lit up, the ball was not held in the hand. He lost control of the ball. Yes, it was in contact with his wrist/thumb, but there was no control of the ball. It wasn't being held.

"So, for me, that's a huge grey area. I just don't think you can give it out. That would've caused a storm with that decision, but just looking at the actual wording of the law, it's very hard to give it out."

"I thought it was out. I understand sometimes you don't hold the ball exactly properly, but if it's somewhere in the vicinity of your palms, and he's hit the bails, it's just a matter of seconds and obviously Cam Green didn't have the time to play the rule in his head," he said. "I thought it was out. The umpire gave it out. It is debatable, it is something where people will have different opinions, but I just thought in that moment it was out. He somewhat had control over it, I won't say he had 100% control over it, but there was control."
