Ben Stokes' fourth ball of the match rocketed into David Warner's stumps... then was revealed to be a no-ball But what happened the three balls prior to that has been slammed for 'pathetic officiating' 😳 Ashes
As England celebrated and Warner began to walk back to the pavilion, the third umpire intervened to point out Stokes' front foot had landed well over the popping crease, making it an illegal delivery.Warner returned to his position and the England all-rounder returned to the top of his mark, adjusting his run-up to ensure the mistake wouldn't be made again.
Third umpire Paul Wilson clearly didn't monitor it properly, or opted not to inform the on-field umpires that Stokes was overstepping the crease."If it's someone upstairs who's supposed to be checking these and they haven't decided that any of those are a no-ball, it's pathetic officiating as far as I'm concerned," Ponting said.
