Starc's catch sparks debate over cricket law at Lord's

A debate broke out on the law of cricket in Lord’s, the home of cricket.

In the Lord’s Test of the Ashes series, Mitchell Starc caught English batsman Ben Dutt, some called him out, some called not out, but TV umpire Maurice Erasmus declared the batsman not out.

The decision was also criticized by former Australian fast bowler McGrath, but the MCC, the governing body of cricket, made it clear that the umpire’s decision was correct and in accordance with the law.
