3rd Test Australia v India, Jan 7-11 at the SCG

[RAPPA]

Wilson you absolute

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Blocker not having a great Test, is he?

 

[k31th]

as long as that arm guard is in contact with the glove, it's enough... or has that changed?

 

[Coops93]

Wait, surely Warney or anyone isn’t actually saying there is any demons in this pitch at all? Yet to see a single wicket due to a ball doing anything out of the ordinary off this pitch for 5 days!!!

Yeah Warne wouldn't shut up about it around the time we got the new ball. He was saying there's plenty of demons in the pitch and the only reason it didn't look like it is because of the old ball.

Can't say I've seen much since the new ball...

 

[RookiePick]

Lucky! Bloody heck

 

[BarryMorgan]

Oh FFS.

Nope - changed

 

[MarcusP2]

Not any more.

Another howler from Blocker, maybe he listened to Bigfooty and decides to give decisions based on who has more reviews left...

 

[Mister B]

Not sure what it is.... spike within a frame, enough to overturn. Paine again should be shaking his head with the inconsistency. Right decision made this time.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

With bowling like this why no man under the helmet on the off side?

 

[rideclutch]

3rd umpire articulating his thoughts to everyone watching is interesting but also surprising, especially when he says "Yeah I'm not sure...".

 

[Dogsman16]

Here we go. Take another 5 mins.

Not a howler. Within mm of glove. Stop being a w***er.

 

[Plugger35]

India could end up with another injury with this type of bowling.

 

[Topkent]

Cummins bouncer is so viscous for someone at 140

Oh and of course need another injury break **** me dead

Spoken like someone who doesn't watch NRL

Poor old Bruce doesn't seem to be sure about much. I do agree with his call this time though. Pity Paine has to glove one when it's not out

 

[Caesar]

Part of batting is running. Do bowlers get a replacement when they do a hammy?

The physical action of running is a relatively small part of batting, which is why the laws allow a runner.

From a spectator’s perspective is a shame to kill a very interesting game just because one of the batsman cannot physically take the runs his shots have earned.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Our luck is never great on those. Frustrating when the umpire gives it out, hopes get up, only to be deflated.

Don't mind it the other way of course....lol.

 

[Perth bloke]

Harsha would have to be one of, if not the sharpest blokest to ever commentate. Smooth as anything

Makes original points which I appreciate but talks way too fast and excitable for me

 

[big bootaaaaah]

Paine just used up his good catch for the day

 

[TigerCraig]

as long as that arm guard is in contact with the glove, it's enough... or has that changed?

no, has to be attached to the glove

 

[eddiesmith]

Not a howler. Within mm of glove. Stop being a w***er.

Batsman doesn’t hit it, gets given out is exactly why DRS was brought in to prevent those howlers. But instead we focus on whether 49.9% or 50.1% of the ball is clipping the stumps...
