I turned it on yesterday arvo. Literally first ball Khawaja got out.

Carey gone. Crucial partnership that.
Green close to his highest Test score now.

When will people learn to stay quiet when Greeny is batting? Clearly we're the common denominator with his dismissals. /s

I've taken that approach the last few innings but it didn't work, so I went for it.

Maybe, just maybe, me posting something about a man playing cricket in Pakistan from my study in Perth has no influence over what happens to him?

 

[Dazzler9]

Nah, I f***ed up. Sorry again folks.

 

[Truckosaurus]

I don't care if Green has a double century in the second innings, no one can say anything until he gets out.

Apparently the sarcasm wasn't obvious enough in my post.

Check out the footage of Carey's decision that got overturned. So much bizarrity in one delivery.

There must be nothing more frustrating for a bowler than hitting the wickets but not removing the bails.

Check the slo-mo and the deviation the ball took from the footmarks. The delivery was crashing into the pegs by all rights. Then it edges the off stump, then it bounces before the keeper, then it gets given out. It was all very strange.

I was listening to the commentary and they were discussing how frequent it has become for the bails not to be dislodged nowadays, particularly in white ball cricket but now in Tests (remember Cam Green's during the summer?). The theory is that the zinger bails (which are now used in Tests also) are heavier since they need batteries in them and therefore more regularly do not get dislodged when they should. Sounds plausible.

So what was the soft call out for?

Apparently they also hammer the stumps in harder these days, which is why stumps cartwheeling is rare.

I don't think anyone knows. Mabo, the vibe.
