Australia were 245-6 and Carey was 72 when England thought they had caught him behind Tongue. Umpire Ahsan Raza rejected the appeal and England immediately reviewed.
Despite the big sound on the Snicko technology, television umpire Chris Gaffaney did not overturn the call because the ball appeared to be far from the bat when the sound occurred.
It later emerged that it was a mistake by Snicko’s operator, who used the microphone on the bowlers’ side, rather than the forwards’.
BBG Sports, the company that owns Snicko, accepted the blame and the next day there was more controversy surrounding the technology involving English goalkeeper Smith.
Carey, meanwhile, scored a crucial century on home soil as Australia posted 371.
