Overview
- BBG Sports admitted operator error in the Alex Carey incident, prompting match referee Jeff Crowe to reinstate England’s lost review.
- Mitchell Starc asked, “Why doesn’t the ICC pay for it?” and called for one global provider after saying on-field that Snicko should be “sacked.”
- The ICC approves two edge-detection systems—RTS in Australia and UltraEdge elsewhere—while host broadcasters currently select and fund the technology for bilateral series.
- UltraEdge is widely viewed as more reliable than RTS and is funded by the ICC for World Cups and other global tournaments.
- Series protocols prohibit a mid-series switch, so RTS will remain in use for the Boxing Day Test at the MCG and the Sydney finale.
