Watch: Ben Stokes published on social networks to criticise a lbw decision provided by umpire Mark Newell throughout the Division Two clash in between Gloucestershire and Sussex today (April 22).
Chasing 144 for triumph in the 4th innings, Sussex really did not have the very best of begins. They shed Tom Clark in the 4th over off the bowling of left- arm rewriter Zafar Gohar, prior to Tom Alsop came down with Gohar in his following over to leave Sussex at 25- 2.
Alsop was offered lbw to a round that reversed in greatly from well outside off stump and struck the left- hander on the back foot. Gohar and all the close- in fielders were loud in their allures and the umpire really did not take much time in increasing his finger.
However, the decision attracted the displeasure of England Test captain Stokes, that talked about a video clip of Alsop’s arch on X (previously Twitter). Stokes composed, “Closer to hitting leg slip on the foot than the stumps 
,” suggesting that the huge turn on the sphere would certainly have taken it way down the leg side.
There were numerous various other talk about the video clip, concurring with Stokes’ evaluation of the decision.

Gohar wound up bowling the same from one end and got 5 gates for 59 runs, however Sussex had the ability to rip off the runs many thanks mainly to Cheteshwar Pujara’s unbeaten 44 from No.4. They won the video game by 4 gates.
