Eng Vs WI: Umpires sanitise ball after Sibley uses saliva by mistake

The on-field umpires were forced to disinfect the match ball after player Dominic Sibley inadvertently applied saliva on the ball during the fourth day of the second #raisethebat series between England and West Indies at Old Trafford in Manchester on Sunday.

The International Cricket Council's (ICC) Cricket Committee chaired by Anil Kumble had earlier recommended banning the usage of saliva to polish the match ball in the wake of coronavirus pandemic.
