An appeal was made from Australia's side, but the field umpire did not give out. After this, a review was taken from Australia's side.
There was a ruckus over Yashasvi Jaiswal's wicket. On the fifth day of the match, Jaiswal was given out through a keeper's catch. However, no movement was seen in the SNICKO meter on Jaiswal's catch. When Jaiswal was given out, there were sounds of 'cheater-cheater' from the crowd. Apart from this, former legendary batsman of the Indian cricket team Sunil Gavaskar, who was doing commentary, also got angry over Jaiswal's wicket.
Australian captain Pat Cummins threw a bouncer to Jaiswal, on which he tried to swing the bat towards the leg side, but the ball went close to his bat and gloves and went into the keeper's hands. An appeal was made from Australia's side, but the field umpire did not give out. After this, a review was taken from Australia's side.
After the review, the third umpire checked. Snickometer was also shown on the screen, which clearly showed that the ball did not touch Jaiswal's bat or gloves anywhere. There was no movement of any kind in the snickometer, but still Jaiswal was declared out. Jaiswal also looked unhappy with the umpire's decision. He also had a few conversations with the umpire, but ultimately he had to accept the decision of the third umpire and return to the pavilion.
