Joe Root was out after scoring 11 runs in the second innings of the Ranchi Test match.
There has been a lot of controversy regarding DRS in the ongoing fourth Test match between India and England. At present, the third day of play is going on in the test match. Talking about today’s game, so far it has been in the name of the bowlers. The England team came out to bat in the second innings today and was out after playing only 53.5 overs.
All the batsmen of England proved to be flops in this innings. Joe Root, who scored a century in the first innings, could not do anything special in this innings and was out after scoring 11 runs on the ball of R Ashwin and now there is a lot of controversy regarding his wicket. Root also did not seem happy with the third umpire’s decision and created a ruckus in the dressing room.
Actually, Ravichandran Ashwin was bowling the 17th over of the second innings of the England cricket team for India. Joe Root was on strike on the last ball of Ashwin’s over. Ashwin dodged Root and the ball went straight to Root’s pad. However, the umpire did not give out. After this the Indian team took DRS.
An amazing ball by Ravi Ashwin and a brilliant review by Captain Rohit Sharma.

In DRS, the ball went straight to the wicket, due to which Root was out after scoring 11 runs. He was not happy with the decision of DRS. It seemed as if the ball’s impact was outside off. Or the ball does not hit the wicket directly. Umpire’s call could have been made. But Joe Root was surprised to see all three red signals in DRS. He was also seen having a little discussion in the dressing room.
At the same time, some fans also feel that Joe Root has been given out wrongly. There is a lot of ruckus regarding Root’s wicket. Very poor umpiring has been seen in this entire series. Former England captain Michael Vaughan has expressed his surprise on this wicket of his and posted it on social media.
