England will hold talks with cricket’s governing body aimed at improving decision-making technology following a controversial mistake on the opening day of the third Ashes Test.
Australian goalkeeper Alex Carey survived a review for being caught at Adelaide Oval, only to later admit he beat the shot delivered by England’s Josh Tongue.
Carey was not ratted out because the Snicko technology showed a discrepancy between the sound and the images from the edge.
BBG, the company that supplies Snicko, has admitted responsibility for the error.
At the end of the first day’s play, England coach Brendon McCullum and team manager Wayne Bentley met with match referee Jeff Crowe.
Crowe confirmed the matter would be reviewed and England reinstated a review for Australia’s first innings.
The England and Wales Cricket Board will also hold talks with the International Cricket Council (ICC) in a bid to review and raise the standards of the decision review system (DRS).
It is an ICC requirement that DRS be operational in all World Test Championship matches.
However, the ICC does not specify which technology providers should be used. In this case, the Snicko system used in Australia is different from the Ultraedge used for testing in the UK.
