5th Test Border Gavaskar Trophy January 3-7 1000hrs @ the SCG

Do we know if anyone has checked Joel Wilson's bank account for a large deposit made in rupee?

 

[BG32]

Did the on field umpire give a softcall?

Yeah out

 

[FlowersByIrene]

You could watch it 100 times and it still wouldn't be clear. Don't let the truth get in the way of your post though.

Maybe if you're Indian.

 

[ptrg]

"rolls on the ground" Joel aye?

Yeah that blatant lie told me that he's more than simply incompetent..

 

[F6Typhoon]

Probably a good thing the decision went their way?
The whinging and moaning woulda been insufferable

I thought part of the ball can touch the ground if you have your finger underneath which was why Smith was able to flick the ball up????

 

[kickazz]

On second look, the bit where the ball hits the ground, if you look closely.......



























IS AN OPTICAL ILLUSION!

 

[grumbleguts]

You could clearly see after the ball rises the curled index finger was under it the entire time

 

[Jimthegreat]

He had his finger under the ball but it was also touching the ground while not controlled. He squeezed it off the ground with his finger to get it up to Marnus

It's a 2D camera from outside the ground. Saw a caught and bowled in the women's BBL. The regular camera had it very doubtful, stump cam had it caught 5 or 6 inches above the ground. 2D cameras are useless for low catches.

He ****ed us in the 2019 Ashes and continues to do so

It's very suspicious at this point

 

[The hands of stone]

It just comes to the umps interpretation of the rule , most other umpires would give that out imo

Decent stroke of luck to Kholi

 

[Goroyals22]

That’s why he was moved to [emoji639]rd ump.
You can properly influence games up there.
His fingers are under it, he has not used the ground to control it.
Starc at lords puts it on the ground. This is not that!

He was actually appointed third umpire for this game months ago… not because of last week

Questions must be asked of Joel Wilson.

 

[philreich]

If Joel Wilson was the Federal employment minister, his solution to fix unemployment would be to increase the minimum school leaving age to 47. He's a joke.

Yep. But it was only one finger at the time, and ball rolled off to the side. Like I said, you could argue a case - but in the end benefit of the doubt is fair

 

[k31th]

I wonder what the plausible physics around that catch would be - easier to flick up like that if the finger was always under it? Easier to flick up if it is already bouncing a bit off the ground? All irrelevant?

That's my thoughts... how could it have gone up like that from his fingertips if it hit the ground... it could squeeze out like that only "up" with the way his fingers were on the ball...

they would have left mid match

 

[Joffaboy]

Yeah out

No soft calls on the field for these.

I despise Wilson but that was a tough call on the evidence. I think he was even expecting and wanting other angles.

 

[Borisdog]

I actually don’t think it was a bad decision. But I most definitely didn’t like Wilson broadcasting on his very first fleeting look that the ball “rolled on the grass”

Have a good look, then make up your mind. That’s all we ask.

 

[beatnik]

So now our whole nation get to call every indian a cheat?

Who did that? The BCCI are the cheats…they clearly had their guy put on DRS

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Boland getting some serious nip.
