Following a four off the first ball of the second over, Ben Duckett faced a couple of dots off Jayden Seales before punching a fuller delivery at the off stump straight down the ground. Crawley, at the non-striker’s end, was a shade early to leave the popping crease and the bowler’s intent to get some hand on the ricocheting ball was successful. In no time, the white cherry clattered onto the non-striker’s end stumps with the decision being referred upstairs. TV umpire Nitin Mennon found that Crawley’s bat was in the air when the ball kissed the stumps and dislodged the bails, paving the way for an unlucky dismissal. Right after, the camera focused on Stokes who was spotted nodding the head in distress with Crawley trudging off the field, owing to his carelessness.
The in-form batter could score just three runs across both the innings of the Test on a batting haven, prompting the Twitterverse into a discussion.
