What Shubman Gill and KL Rahul put their feet on the pitch of Old Trafford, England came down on dishonesty. During the Manchester Test, a video of England bowler Bridan Cars has surfaced, in which he is seen tampering with the ball. The video of Bridan Cars is also going viral on social media, which was also out of the point by former Australia captain Ricky Ponting during the commentary.
Fourth day incident in Manchester Test
Now the question is, when did Breden Cars tamper with the ball in the Manchester Test? So this whole incident is of the fourth day game. During the 12th over of India’s second innings, Shubman Gill hit Bridan Cars back to back fours, after which the cars were seen tampering with the ball.

Bridan Cars pressed the ball with shoes
It happened that Bridan Cars stopped the ball from his foot in his follow-three. This was not bad because it usually do this bowlers. However, instead of bowing down or catching it or bouncing it like football, they pressed the ball under the shoe.
Ricky Ponting also notices the act of Bridan Cars
Ricky Ponting caught sight of the same act of Bridan cars. They found that cars are trying to spoil a part of the ball by rubbing it with shoes to achieve reverse swing. Commenting live on Sky Sports Cricket, Ponting said that it was the last over of Bridan Cars, where he does so in his follow-three. Stops the ball and… Oops! Makes some large marks of spikes on the bright part of the ball.
