    What's the story

    Former Australian cricket team captain Ricky Ponting was left unhappy with umpiring decisions made on the fourth day of the ongoing first Test in Adelaide.

    The 43-year-old legend was of the opinion that on-field officials don't look at the front line anymore.

    Ponting also lashed out at umpires for not noticing no-balls, unless there is a wicket.

    Here's more.

    Ishant's no-ball was only spotted after Aussies called for DRS

    Ponting stated his concerns after Indian pace bowler Ishant Sharma dismissed Aussie opener Aaron Finch and umpire Kumar Dharmasena gave it out.

    But later on the review showed that Ishant had overstepped and Finch survive the scare.

    According to cricket.com.au, Ponting also slammed the umpires for not pointing out no-balls.

    "Some of the ones we've seen today. He was 4-6 inches over the line".

    Quote

    I don't think the umpires are looking: Ponting

    "I don't think the umpires are looking and I certainly don't think they were looking at those ones because they were blatantly obvious ones. And as we know now, they'll only ever look at them if a wicket falls, which is not right."

    1st Test

    Australia 219 runs away from victory

    Meanwhile, Finch didn't survive for too long and managed to score just 11 runs on Sunday.

    He was sent back by Ravichandran Ashwin. In pursuit of 323 runs to win the Test, Australia stumbled to 104/4 at stumps.

    They need 219 runs more to win.

    For India, pacer Mohammed Shami and Ashwin bagged two wickets each in the second innings.
