Don't challenge Michael Gough's decisions, unless you are 110% sure. Even ICC's official Twitter handle lauded the English umpire for his great piece of umpiring. Many people on Twitter, including Ravichandran Ashwin, lauded Gough for his exemplary umpiring skills, which was on point in Southampton.

Michael Gough is really an outstanding umpire

A great piece of umpiring 👏

This is incredible

Michael Gough is an incredibly good umpire. Since 2018, he is the only umpire with a correct rate of more than 90 percent on DRS calls in Tests.

Amazing work by Michael by Michael Gough, great umpiring

That was a super call we have criticised umpires but that was a top decision. Imp wicket for Pakistan. Glad to see a full session of Test cricket.

Michael Gough has to be the best umpire around.

Can't agree more

Michael Gough seems to be one of the few umpires who knows what he's doing. Really impressed with him in all his tests so far this summer.
