It didn't follow the typical umpiring SOP, but common sense got benefit of doubt, which is fine with me as I've said it already.
Are you sure about that? Surely SOP would have been watch the replay, see that he clearly hit the ball with a huge deflection, then overturn the decision. Simple. There should not have been any need for snicko or hot spot

Umpires aren't the brightest bunch of people but surely they have at least that level of common sense

India didn't rest Bumrah in their last 5 test series when they were 3-1 up v England at home so they won't now lol.

Unless his body is broken, he will want to play and yeah their is plenty on the line.

The issue is one of Siraj/Deep probably need to go, I like Deep but meh bored of hearing of how unlucky he is tbh. Siraj probably did enough to retain his position in the 2nd innings.
I doubt very much he would let them rest him if he wanted to - he’s in his prime and has to make full use of it right now, and I’m sure he knows it. Not like they can force him to rest either, if they piss him off the whole team goes to ****.

Hot Spot and Ultra edge are for all purpose considered just an another option in the decision making. They are only to be relied on heavily in the absence of concluding evidence from other options..

Whatever it takes!!!
Sledging and Sandpapers are foriegn to an Aussie? Have you not heard it before? Bizzare
dude relax. They won the games fair and square. And dont take out our flaws and issues on Australians. What they did in the past is of no consequence during this series. All Indians fans are disappointed but its just poor form esp as this forum has mostly genial and neutral posters from all countries. Let it go. One post was understandable in the frustration of the moment but you cant go doubling down on these takes. Chill bro. 🤗
