New Zealand cricket icon Ian Smith<\/a> has suggested there may have been an issue with the stumps at the Gabba<\/a> after Alex Carey<\/a> \ufeffsurvived a remarkable incident. <\/p>\n

At 5-72, Shamar Joseph \ufeffforced a play and miss from Carey with a sound coming as it passed the bat. <\/p>\n

West Indies then appealed but it was given out before Joseph urged captain Kraigg Brathwaite not to review because he believed it hit the stumps. \ufeff<\/p>\n

Joseph's assumption was correct, with footage capturing the bail rotating but not dislodging from the stumps. <\/p>\n

\ufeff"The pressure has just pushed the bail into the groove … wow, what a moment," Adam Gilchrist said on Fox Cricket. <\/p>\n

"Extraordinary … it spun it round … \ufeffthat's astonishing, when it's your day, it's your day."<\/p>\n

"So lucky," West Indies legend Brian Lara added before Mark Waugh said he'd "never seen that before".<\/p>\n

The incident was a sliding doors moment for both sides with Carey going on to score 65 and keep Australia in the contest. \ufeff<\/p>\n

Later in the match Smith \ufeffconsidered whether the height of the stump was an issue.<\/p>\n

"Is there a possibility that right stump was lower than the other two? Then the angle of the bail made it stronger in terms of it's positioning," he said. <\/p>\n

"Was it fractionally lower?<\/p>\n

"I just wonder if the stumps were absolutely perfectly level."<\/p>\n

Despite the dismay for the West Indies, England legend Michael Vaughan said the funny side. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"Let's be honest he was bowled," he laughed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
