It was a tense day at Edgbaston during the India-England Test match when what should have been a routine review turned into full-blown DRS drama. Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, who was given out LBW, waited until the very last moment to signal for a review. Some even believed he crossed the 15-second limit.

The DRS drama at Edgbaston unfolded when Yashasvi Jaiswal took a late review call, prompting a heated exchange between Ben Stokes and the umpire, stirring crowd reactions and debate over fairness.

England captain Ben Stokes immediately reacted and went directly to the umpire and questioned the review permission. The scene became conflict and there was a stir in the crowd - some supported, while many expressed their displeasure.

Increasing stress further, DRS showed three raids, calling Jaiswal out, which proved the original decision to be correct. But by then the debate was no longer on whether he was out or not, but it was happening on whether the rules were equally implemented.

The match continued, but this moment showed that cricket is not just a game of bat and ball it is also a game of pressure, intuition and decisions taken in a moment. Fans will remember this moment not for the wicket, but for the emotional atmosphere associated with it.
