I am a player and a great lover of cricket and in the best interest, longevity, and progress of the game, many innovations have been added. Technology is the most intrusive and controversial, at times.
I do not hold Joe Root responsible for any wrongdoing. The third umpire is the one who messed-up. Of what value is technology, if we are not prepared to objectively and critically analyze the product? If there is any doubt about the resultant, then the batsman should be given the benefit of the doubt. We use as many angles as possible, to try to arrive at the truth.
In all my years in cricket (more than five decades), it has always been held that if the ball comes into contact with the ground before the fielder catches the ball, then the batsman is NOT-OUT. That should have been the end of the matter. Are we interested in truth and integrity? Or looking good? The ICC needs to think of and plan for the future and longevity of Cricket.
