Twitter reacts to third umpire ruling Root ‘not out’ despite latter confessing to Stokes that he ‘did not hit it’
Third umpiring calls have been the talk of the ongoing India and England Test, and in the evening of Day 2, the TV Umpire, yet again, was in the limelight. Shamshuddin overturned a Joe Root LBW decision citing ‘inside-edge, despite the batsman himself confessing that he missed the ball.
The THIRD UMPIRE, says NOT OUT!

There was no inside edge!
That mid-off angle most def pointed out that it hit the pad first. Root himself wasn't sure until the 11th second whether to take the review. Generally, if there's an inside edge batsman go for the DRS straight away.

You read his lips!
The lip reading of the words ‘I didn’t hit it’ and the delay in reviewing probably give it away but there is no way the third umpire could give that!
