Australia was cruising at 193/0 with a brilliant opening partnership between Aaron Finch and Usman Khawaja. In the 32nd over of the innings, Kuldeep Yadav trapped Finch right in front of the stumps and the on-field umpire raised his finger. The Australian captain decided to call for a review but the DRS couldn't help him as the replay suggested that the ball would have gone on to hit the stumps. What was surprising about this dismissal was the fact that the ball tracking had it all wrong. The ball had actually pitched in the middle but the hawk-eye showed it pitching on the leg. This astonishing blunder on 'Hawk-Eye' left the cricket fans questioning the use of technology and its efficiency.
Here are the top tweets:
Finch LBW. Are we just gonna ignore the fact that ball tracking had it pitching in a totally different place to reality?

I saw it pitching middle, maybe even middle and off. Ball tracking had it pitching on leg.
Still out but pretty weird.
What on earth has just happened with the Finch LBW? Ball tracker has the ball pitching somewhere completely different, and that sort of affects the trajectory doesn't it. Might still be out, but bizarre.

Ball was turning to leg side in actual ball but then don't know which ball Hawkeye showed there 😂😂 Finch missed a century and that LBW I'm still not convinced and see no one is talking about that yet.

-Ranchi -Finch LBW dismissals was very odd. Although ball was hitting the stumps to a chinaman...the replay showed chinaman, but DRS should googly!!.🙄. Was there coding issue?.

So who is going to mention Aaron Finch’s ball tracking that that tracked a different ball when he was given out lbw!

I was just tweeting about how Finch is one ball away from LBW and Kuldeep gets him. Always gets his pad in line

Ah, Finch had to eventually get out lbw and wastes a review :)

So it looks like India have found a way to Cheat using drs. Interesting that it happens when Australia are dominating and Aaron Finch is going on to 100. You watch India try and pretend that this is a travesty but not complain about it.

Yeah, looks like it's plotted a straight line between release and impact, but has managed to get the length of the ball right, so hasn't missed the ball pitching altogether. I'm just going to go ahead and say this is compelling evidence that the machines are rising up against us.

even drs fooled aaron finch ball was pitching on leg stump but hawkeye showed it in line
— Surya (@suryasmash999)
Oh dearie, this was completely missed. Coz when I saw Finch 's dismissal at real time, I thought it was a leg spinner which was turning towards leg as it pitched in middle but ball tracking showed it went straight like a flipper. The Decision Review System or the DRS is flawed
