England protests Snicko error that wrongly ruled Alex Carey not out, costing a key wicket.

England is demanding a formal protest after a Snicko technology error likely cost them a key wicket in the third Ashes Test, with BBG admitting the wrong stump microphone was selected, causing a misleading audio spike. The error led to a not-out decision for Australia’s Alex Carey, who scored 106, sparking frustration from England’s coaching staff. This marks the second major Snicko controversy in the series, following a similar incident in Perth, raising concerns over the system’s reliability. Carey acknowledged the decision was lucky, and former umpire Simon Taufel called the audio anomaly unprecedented. England has not yet filed a complaint, but doubts about the technology’s accuracy persist.
