He sowed doubt over whether the ball had hit the ground before Steven Smith controlled it to dismiss Joe Root on the second day of the Lord&#8217;s Test, and called into question a call for a catch from Marnus Labuschagne earlier in the series.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s guesswork around everything,\u201d he said.  &#8220;Fingers under the ball when the ball still touches the ground.

However, they were widely flared.
