If the topic of discussion on the fourth day was whether Mitchell Starc's catch of Ben Duckett was legal, then there was a greater controversy—and potentially the series' turning point—when Jonny Bairstow was declared leg before Cameron Green's bowling on the final ball of the 52nd over during England's second innings pursuit of 371 runs. This was how the one-ball event went. Bairstow assumed the ball was dead and the over was over when he wandered out of the crease without grounding his bat after dodging Green's bouncer.
