On the fifth day of the 4th Test between India and Australia, Yashasvi Jaiswal was involved in a controversial DRS call. Despite no conclusive evidence, third umpire Sharfuddoula Saikat gave the verdict in Australia's favor, leading to confrontation from Jaiswal. However, Snicko operator Warren Brennan revealed that the lack of a spike was due to the shot being a glance-shot, making it difficult for the technology to detect any sound. Legendary umpire Simon Taufel also backed the decision, stating that the deflection was enough to overturn the on-field umpire's decision.
