England's Chris Woakes was denied the wicket of Australian wicketkeeper Alex Carey after a controversial no-ball call on day three of the fifth Ashes Test in Hobart, when he was adjudged to have overstepped by third umpire Paul Reiffel.
Woakes looked to have bowled Carey for 19, with the 30-year-old having played a limp shot and dragged the ball against his stumps.
However, replays showed that Woakes was tight on the front line and Reiffel looked at multiple angles before opting for the no-ball.
