[@phugoid]

Getting a reprieve of the sort that Warner got courtesy Burns is, however, good luck but not getting bowled off a NB which is illegal to even begin with. Delivered from a few inches aft would've also changed the trajectory of the delivery and who can tell for sure that the batter would still have been bowled? The delivery is called a No Ball for a dashed good reason

@@MachineThatCreates 4 inches? It was 2 centimetres. His heel was damn near on the Popping crease ffs!
