Anderson should be in trouble for this.

Cant see the face of Anderson but it looks like he is using the sweat from his forehead atleast the first touch touch before the ball indicates that I guess.

It's inconclusive for me, could just be sweat off the top of the lip.

Interesting camera work and commentary.

I meant while him touching his tongue as when he lifts his hand camera doesnt follow where his hand is going so difficult to tell whether sweat from face or saliva from tongue.

 

[Saj]

No replays either.

Interesting.

Even if he is using saliva he will be given warning and I dont think any action will be taken on first offense. Saw Ben Stokes low fives when he took a wicket yesterday.

Broadcasters have cleared it and showed that it was sweat from forehead being used. Also told if anyone uses saliva he will be given two warnings first.

 

[Extra_Cover]

This is clarified on air that it was sweat, wider camera shots were shown showing this was sweat and not saliva.

 

[Saj]

Finally showed some replays.

Took their time.

Seems that Nasser and director had to do some work to get this out
