Day After Day After New Year Test: Australia v India @ Sydney (Tue-Sat)

[BLUES9898]

Oh come on
Australia

 

[outabounds]

there is someone by the name of Katich who should be considered for the next test and if the australian Captain can't stomach that then we should find another captain

 

[FlyingBurittoBro]

shot by clarke

 

[BACCS]

That pitched way outside leg, it was almost impossible for it not to be.

 

[medhurstISGOD]

It was umpires call Healy you silly goose.

Still unlucky though.

 

[MinerBoy]

From Marsh or Warner? Marsh still seems to be in T20 mode, but Warner just played a poor defensive shot. So yes, you are right if you are referring to Warner.

Yeah, I was referring to Warner and the other poster's reference to him not doing his job properly and making some T20 reference.

Thanks for the confirmation.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Katich is finished get the **** over it

 

[stewie griffen]

pressure is on, Australia desperately needing to steady.

Clarke will be out for < 5

he's on 5 now

lets go Pup... need a steadying 50 here

 

[Doctor Feel]

That was shocking by Clarke

 

[Doodlesweaver]

Clarke's chasing the ball, the puppy that he is. He's played at all three ball so far, none of which were going near the stumps. Does he even watch what is going on from the balcony?

There is a thing by the name of DRS who should be considered for next Test so we don't get shit decisions from incompetent umpires.

 

[Tassieboy]

That shouldn't be out lbw for mine technically - half the ball has to hit in line. I'm confused.

 

[Jesus Baulks]

**** Ian Healy isn't excruciating. Bloke has absolutely no idea

 

[BACCS]

That shouldn't be out lbw for mine technically - half the ball has to hit in line. I'm confused.

Makes no sense to me either.

 

[Speck]

Clarkes still got the Slazenger pads and gloves but a clean bat?

 

[djrossie16]

Tough decision for Cowan. When I saw it first I thought not out. Without DRS I would have thought the umpire would have been a bit more lenient.

 

[Spitta09]

Healy can complain all he wants about where the ball pitched but it was crashing into middle and off

 

[Lemma]

Does the ball have to pitch in line for an LBW? I thought it just had to be going to hit the stumps.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

That shouldn't be out lbw for mine technically - half the ball has to hit in line. I'm confused.

Technicalities. That would still have been out even if it could have been referred as it was Umpires Call based on part of the ball pitching in line.

That was out, mate. Good decison. Salmon trout, out.

 

[frankrizzo]

Christ no wonder people don't get the drs when halfwits like healy are the ones explaining it.

The review system gives the benefit to the umpires original decision not the bat or bowler, it's not that hard to comprehend surely?

 

[outabounds]

There is a thing by the name of DRS who should be considered for next Test so we don't get shit decisions from incompetent umpires.

BACCs I agree that these umpires are crap but DRS would have backed that up

 

[BarneyBent]

You'd think the Channel 9 commentators would be made to learn the rules as part of their contract. Apparently not.

 

[Lets Roar like '44]

From what I saw Cowans DID hit in line with off stump. Shouldn't matter if its half a ball, quarter of a ball, if ANY part of the ball hits in line, then it should be out.

 

[BluesMan]

That pitched way outside leg, it was almost impossible for it not to be.

Outside Leg?

There is a thing by the name of DRS who should be considered for next Test so we don't get shit decisions from incompetent umpires.

There will be no DRS for the series. It is not a test by test bases.

 

[whats_at_stake]

That shouldn't be out lbw for mine technically - half the ball has to hit in line. I'm confused.

That is for a decision to be overturned, not for line ball decisions. Good decision.
