š Share this article My feeling was I got a touch - Carey on review reprieve. Australia gloveman Alex Carey stated he believed he had edged the ball when he was given not out on Decision Review System during day one of the third Ashes Test versus the English. Following his reprieve on 72, Carey proceeded to score a superb 106 to help the hosts finish on 326-8 at the end of play in Adelaide. The Key Moment The home side were 245-6 when Carey looked to play a cut shot to seamer Josh Tongue. The England team were convinced they had a wicket, believing they had detected an edge, but umpire Ahsan Raza remained unconvinced. After captain Ben Stokes referred the on-field call, the replay reviewed by third umpire Chris Gaffaney displayed a significant spike although this registered before the ball had reached the bat. Gaffaney also said he was of the opinion there was a space between bat and ball. As a result, Carey was allowed to continue. "I felt a little noise as the ball went past," said Carey. "Had I been given out, I likely would have reviewed, but without much conviction. It made a convincing sound near the bat." Technology Debate Questions have been raised about 'Snicko'' during the Ashes contest after a number of dubious moments. England's bowling coach David Saker suggested England may escalate this most recent incident further with the match official Jeff Crowe. "I don't think we've done anything about it so far but after today, maybe that might go a bit further," Saker remarked. "It's been a worry for us all series long. The focus should be on cricket, not technology failures. That's where we are." Emotional Century His hundred was his maiden in the Ashes. It was also an heartfelt moment for Carey, whose dad died in recent months. His spouse was emotional in the crowd as the batsman celebrated by pointing to the heavens. "Scoring a century at home with family watching was incredible," stated Carey. "You can probably understand my glance skyward. I'm trying not to tear up. It was a fantastic feeling." Previous Ashes Drama This isn't Carey's first brush with Ashes drama. He was the wicketkeeper who notoriously dismissed Jonny Bairstow at Lord's in the 2023 Ashes series, which created a intense final day. Regarding the overturned decision he continued: "The technology clearly wasn't synchronized. That's how the game works; fortune plays a part." "I might have gotten away with one."
