4th Test Border Gavaskar Trophy December 26-30 1000hrs @ the MCG

[ABAB]

So even after replays clearly showing it bounced after the bat, people are still complaining and calling the umpire a cheat.

You’d think the decision had cost Australia something other than the captain a wicket after he bowled himself only as the no11 was on strike.

It's the process, he didn't even look at the side vision????

 

[Speck]

It's been shown they only see what we see - happened in Perth, as he only had the one angle, which we the viewers also saw on loop.
It's purely down to the host provider to give him (and us) the angles.

In this case, it's far worse, as he didn't even request another angle

So annoying when we have Fox halo and Xray which have been showing off side views all test.

I'm certain they would have an off side view, they would need it for a run out call in case the square leg view is blocked.

 

[Voice of the G]

There is no such rule. And it was beyond doubt.

There was doubt when I saw it.

Konstas Part II : Ramp Flem to the Nose Bleeds

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

This is so easy to predict. Sam out for single figures. The media has pumped him up so much and he played so really crap shots first inning but got lucky. It’s the karma of sport.

Or a quick fire 30, and then not score double figures again until 2026.

 

[smasha]

If the pitch hasn't deteriorate today, it won't deteriorate tomorrow.

I'm thinking that also.
We can only hope.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I have no idea what to expect with Konstas here

Does he double down on his first innings approach?

Reel it in a fraction?

 

[Aussie pie]

What was questionable about it? The side on replay literally showed the ball bouncing a couple of inches behind his bat.

Do you know how long an inch is and what “behind” means? I’m guessing you know what 3 inches is and “behind”

There is no such rule. And it was beyond doubt.

Simon Taufel seems to disagree with you in this instance.

What doubt was there when they showed the replay with the ball hitting the ground after the ball hitting the bat? Did the fielder catch it one handed or something?

 

[Bucking Beads]

Odds of Konstas getting cleaned bowled trying to lap Bumrah?

Extremely high.

Not sure what you’re alluding to with your second sentence but the side on replay clearly showed the ball bouncing after passing the bat whatever measurement you want to use.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

This is a real awkward spot. The rain and that Reddy/Washington partnership really hurt.

Still rather our position but it's going to be hard to get a big enough score to defend while having enough time to bowl them out.

Pitch doesn't look to be breaking up. If we only have 90-100 overs they could easily block it out

 

[Around the Wicket]

Fine Leg, Third Man and a fly slip… I’d like him attempting the shot imo.. pretty low percentage shot

You sure the 3rd umpire looked at the side vision????

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Wow Bumrah 5/24 vs Khawaja this series

I'll be the guy - please post the rule

If that indeed was the case, I didn’t see that vision, and I stand corrected.

 

[PhatBoy]

He didn’t.

But it showed that the right result was achieved regardless and even the vision he did look at was basically inconclusive anyway so I don’t see how they would have ever given it out.

 

[dogs105]

I reckon he'll be defensive and push it around for a while...

 

[Plugger35]

Just the one wild swing from Konstas in that first over, disappointing.

 

[sherb]

Australia will be disappointed

Should have been batting again by lunch

We are.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Charges first over

 

[eddiesmith]

Sitting at fine leg waiting for the ramp shot.

 

[PhatBoy]

Don’t shoot the messenger. Simon Taufel just said it 10 minutes ago on Channel 7: I’m assuming it relates to when there is no conclusive evidence

 

[ABAB]

He didn’t.

But it showed that the right result was achieved regardless and even the vision he did look at was basically inconclusive anyway so I don’t see how they would have ever given it out.

Then you've completely missed the point.
