Pakistan vs Australia (in the UAE)

[lusheslewis]

Since when has there been a hmmm not sure but I'll give it out rule.

So you're saying there has to be zero doubt to give something out?

Just realized the Bangladesh cricket has 300,000 more likes on FB than cricket Australia.

On a 3rd umpire decision, yes

Having about 8 times the population helps though

My understanding is in a stumping or run out, the benefit goes with the batsman. Either way i'm pretty sure having nothing conclusive is pretty ******* important when deciding to give a bloke out.

I don't know if there are official guidelines for third umpires either. Benefit of the doubt to the batsman has always been a convention but is not in the rules. I would have given that out on balance of probabilities but it wasn't clear cut.

Hopefully these two can hang around a bit and give them a bit of a scare

What's happening? Don't have fox where I am at the moment.

 

[Sprout]

That would've been ****ing hilarious if it wasn't out.

 

[Super Hans]

They had to fought! Aye Jonesy!

 

[Arecsa]

All over. Siddle didn't do a bad job with the bat. Doolan, Clarke, Marsh, Haddin are to blame for our inability to at least draw this game.

 

[Mister B]

Such a shame he hit it. Would have been awesome seeing half the Pakistan side get sent off the ground for tampering with the equipment in the middle of the game.

 

[Illinois Nazi]

That's out. Well done Pakistan.

 

[carnthemlions]

22 overs to go... any chance of a dust storm?

 

[Arbuckle]

Siddle's last act (in more ways than one) in Test cricket?

 

[dvas987]

Didn't deserve to hang on the way we played throughout the whole game

 

[LukeParkerno1]

typical siddle lol...2 reviews, 2 completely wrong

Nigel Llong the pommy piece of shit gave Johnson out with no clear way of telling and the Paki's wasted a review on O'Keefe

 

[Illinois Nazi]

Would have been so much more fun if that was given not out.

 

[Gray Day]

Hope your happy Llong. Wrecked a good game.

Actually, I hope you never umpire again.

You would be saying the same thing if he hadn't reviewed it.

 

[Arbuckle]

You would be saying the same thing if he hadn't reviewed it.

Umm. Wut?

 

[Moist Biscuit]

Changes for the second test? Doolan out Hughes in for a start.

I mean, it's pretty simple in this case isn't it? Do you think something was grounded behind the line? If so, not out. If not, out.

I thought it was out.
