Gilchrist: Third-umpire should be able to spot no-balls

The Hindu  

Australian great Adam Gilchrist feels the third umpire should be able to spot no-balls although he is all for the fourth umpire to take the call in the IPL, provided correct decisions are made. Gilchrist made the comments after the IPL governing council proposed to have a dedicated “no-ball” umpire to reduce the number of howlers in the lucrative league. “That should be allowed, whether you need a fourth umpire, maybe not why can’t the third umpire just look at the replay and just go 'not out',” he said. India skipper Virat Kohli even had a heated exchange with Indian umpire S Ravi, who failed to spot a no-ball by Mumbai Indians’ Sri Lankan pacer Lasith Malinga, which proved costly for the Royal Challengers Bangalore during one of the IPL matches.
