India A Were Up To Something With The Ball, Claims Ian Healy On Controversial Ball Change
Great Barrier Reef Arena: Former Australia wicket-keeper Ian Healy believes the India A players were up to something with the ball which led to the controversial ball change during day four of their first four-day game against Australia A at Mackay.
At the Great Barrier Reef Arena, umpires changed the ball before play began on day four due to a scratch on the ball. On-field umpire Shawn Craig was heard saying via stump mic, "When you scratch it, we change the ball. No more discussion, let's play."
Craig also warned wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan about facing sanction related to dissent after saying the ball change was a "very stupid decision". But Cricket Australia said after the game ended in a seven-wicket win that the ball was changed due to deterioration and no action would be taken against anyone.
