Pakistan workforce director Mohammad Hafeez attributed the workforce’s defeat towards Australia on the Melbourne Cricket Floor to what he perceives as “inconsistent umpiring” and the “curse” of choice evaluate know-how. Within the second Check, Pakistan misplaced by 79 runs, giving the hosts an unassailable 2-0 lead within the three-game collection.
In the course of the 317-run chase, Pakistan wanted 98 runs with 5 wickets in hand when Mohammad Rizwan was declared caught behind off the wristband of his glove after a DRS evaluate from Pat Cummins.

“I really feel like these are the areas that must be addressed. I spoke to [Rizwan] and he is a really trustworthy particular person. He stated he didn’t even really feel that it touched wherever close to the gloves. And what we noticed, there needs to be conclusive proof to reverse the choice of the umpire. That is what I do know. The umpire gave it not out and there was no conclusive form of proof the place the choice needs to be turned over,” he added.
Contrarily, former ICC umpire Simon Taufel believes that the third umpire made the right choice.
“For me, conclusive proof was the ball on prime of that wristband connected to the glove, with the spike [on Snicko],” Taufel stated. “Very comfy from the place I am sitting that Richard Illingworth the third umpire had conclusive proof to overturn that call,” Taufel spoke on Channel Seven’s broadcast after Rizwan’s dismissal.
