Default Match Referee Rejected Bangladesh’s Complain against Wicket-keeper Jones

“Guardian” reported that Match Referee Alan Hurst rejected Bangladesh’s Complain against English Wicket-keeper Geraint Jones for the fraudulent catch to dismiss Nafis Iqbal on the 2nd Test. Alan Hurst rejected the complain saying that “the footage was inconclusive or that Jones himself could not have been sure whether the ball had carried”

Quote from Guardian:
“Bangladesh's fury was reserved for Geraint Jones, whose catch to dismiss Nafees Iqbal on Saturday led them to lodge an official complaint yesterday morning with the match referee Alan Hurst. TV footage clearly showed that Jones had taken the ball on the bounce, but Hurst rejected Bangladesh's complaint, deciding the footage was inconclusive or that Jones himself could not have been sure whether the ball had carried. “
