While the deep crease was unusually wide, and some legs behind it appeared to touch the ground outside the crease, the third umpire did not say no ball.

As soon as any part of the leg is touching the ground, it has landed the leg, and it is the time the position of the foot that is considered to be for the back foot.”

MCC concluded: “Clearly, at the point Deep’s leg touched the ground first, the back leg was inside and the return was not touching the crease. Some of his legs may later touched the ground outside the crease – it is not relevant to this law. At the point of landing he was within the crease, and hence it was considered to be a legal delivery.”England were eventually excluded for 271 on the last day, resulting in India’s series-tier win 336 runs in the second Test of the five-match series.
