However, Gough and fellow umpire Joel Wilson denied Cummins’ pleas, with Siraj surviving.
“Pat wants to review it, this is very interesting, I’ve never seen this. Pat is saying you umpires took it upstairs on your own behalf, now I would like to review that decision. “It was tight but I would say it’s probably out… it’s one I’ve never seen before to be quite honest. You could probably go either way and he’s not 100 per cent sure.”
