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

[BluesMan]

@Bluesman
Ohk I got ya now. I was getting confused between the point it pitches and the point it impacts the pad.

Very interesting that Clarke has no sponsers. Im sure he will have one come the WACA test.

 

[Higs]

I swear Clarke just gets bored out there sometimes. Even if he's seeing the ball well, he just has to have a waft on occassion

 

[Doodlesweaver]

Clarkey wants to get out.

 

[Ash Grant]

If the batsman is playing a shot, the ball has to hit him in line with the stumps and be going on to hit them.

If he isn't offering a shot, the ball can hit him outside the line of the stumps and still be given out if it is going on to hit the stumps.

Under no circumstance can it be given out if the ball pitches outside leg stump.

For anyone still confused this is the best explanation of the LBW rule so far. It really is simple.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Who should sponsor Michael Clarke...I'm sure there is the potential for a funny thread there!

BCF: Boating, Camping and Fishing?

 

[mike14]

Must be at least half of the stumps to overturn a not out lbw, if an ump has given it out it could be hitting 1/100 of the legstump and it would stay as umpire call.

It's an easy concept, the benefit of the doubt goes to whatever decision the on field umpire made.

Please don't listen to healy when it comes to drs, anything tougher than fingerpainting makes his head hurt.

Yeah, I just found it interesting that they don't use the same measurements for each part.

I understand the benefit of the doubt and the *ation of I Healy

Clarke is just too loose.

I've heard that about him, but his personal life is his personal life.

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Jim Maxwell and Danny Morrison laying into Clarke for his compulsive need to hit the ball every time.

 

[Blue and Gold Blood]

Gee that throw by the Indian back to the bowlers end is just about the worst throw I've seen before. Missed the stumps by 30 meters.

 

[Doodlesweaver]

That's how he got that ton in SA. Played and missed chronically till he got to about 35 or so then started middling it most of the time. It was the chanciest knock since Haddin's at the Gabba. Just swish and swish and hope it comes off. He ain't going to stop playing like that, it's his natural game.

I'll pay that

And we all know just how much Clarke loves batsmen who play their natural game.

Man, I wish i'd heard that. Jim Maxwell being critical of a NSW player- i've heard it all now.

 

[damochandler]

If thats the case then he is doing a good job, His message is getting through , so get of his case.

What?

Danny Morrison talking about Jane McGrath day and the way the game's going "You want it to go to the third day..." lol.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Yeah, duh.

The captaincy has obviously hepled him knuckle down.......

 

[Scootyb]

Think that was a dreaded bat handle click for punter?

 

[beez]

Man, I wish i'd heard that. Jim Maxwell being critical of a NSW player- i've heard it all now.

He's been critical of Pup on more than 1 occasion this Summer over Clarke's unwillingness to leave it alone.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Ian Healy, you d***.

 

[Tassieboy]

Think that was a dreaded bat handle click for punter?
