Over the Internet, a video has gone viral of the incident happened during the 3rd match of the ongoing Ashes. In the video, Stuart Broad has seen asking the umpire to change the decision through the stumps mic. However, this made onfield umpire to revert his decision.

Full Story 

After Steve Smith ruled out, England fans were confident of levelling the series as now they have to bowl against timid batting line up. But it looked like that Steve Smith has transferred his powers to replacement Marcus Labuschagne. Marcus is looking great in touch and played a decent inning. But during the match, something happened with Marcus which has taken off 4 runs from his bag. In the 62nd over of the Australian innings, Labuschagne hooked a short ball of veteran Stuart Broad and ball went to the boundary after hitting with Marcus’s Helmet. The earlier umpire had given four runs from the bat as it was looking ball took the edge.

However, Stuart had got that it was not from the bat, and he asked the third umpire through the stumps mic that, “Could you take those four runs off, please.”
