Pink-ball Test: Watch - India's Punam Raut given not out but walks against Australia on Day 2

Pink-ball Test: In a show of honesty, India's senior batter Punam Raut walked despite the on-field umpire turning down an appeal for caught behind from Australia on Day 2 of the Test match in Queensland.

India's Punam Raut triggered the Spirit of Cricket debate on Friday after she walked despite the on-field umpire turning down Australia's appeal for a caught-behind on Day 2 of the historic Pink-ball Test at the Carrara Oval in Queensland. Punam hit 36 from 165 balls before she edged one to the wicketkeeper in Sophie Molineux's over in the first session on Friday.

Punam Raut was showcasing a lot of solidity before she pushed at a delivery from Molineux outside the off-stump. The Australian fielders and the bowler went up in appeal but umpire Phillip Gillespie was unmoved.
