Ben Stokes in no-ball drama with front-foot technology broken: Men’s Ashes

Ben Stokes: Under ICC rules, the third umpire’s job is to keep an eye on the front line and report any no-balls. When Ben Stokes bowled David Warner with a no-ball in his first over back in Test cricket, he was denied a wicket.

It was soon discovered that he had overstepped on the first three deliveries of the over as well, but due to a glitch in the system, the third umpire didn’t call them under the new rules.

The technology that allowed the TV official to monitor the frontline had gone down before the match started, therefore this Test is being played under the former playing circumstances, with only wicket-taking deliveries being monitored. The host network, Channel Seven, eventually revealed that there were 14 no-balls in Stokes’ first five overs, with only one called on the field.

On the second morning, Warner was on 17 when he played around a full delivery, but Stokes almost halted his celebration, as if afraid of going over the front line.

The host broadcasters replayed footage of the start of the over shortly after the non-dismissal, and Ben Stokes had no-balled each time

The ICC first tested the use of a TV umpire watching the front line every delivery in 2019, and it was used in Test cricket for the first time in 2020 when England faced Pakistan.

According to the ICC playing conditions for the World Test Championship:

“The third umpire shall review television replays of the bowler’s front foot landing and, if he/she is satisfied that any of these three conditions have not been met, he/she shall immediately advise the bowler’s end umpire, who shall in turn immediately call and signal No-ball,”

During the drinks break, Joe Root maintained a conciliatory demeanor when speaking with Fox Cricket. “It’s a little aggravating,” he admitted, “but we can’t let it get to us.”

Due to the bad weather in Brisbane, this is Stokes. First Test match since his sabbatical from the game in March. And he has had very little meaningful preparation building up to the series.
