Peak Test Cricket, Great crowd over five days at the G

 

[Young Redleg]

That was pretty satisfying. Honestly Australia have been pretty dominant this series. Should be 3-1 already.

Drama of 5 day test going down to the last hour still maybe the best of any sport

Can't beat it.

 

[Proper Gander]

Can't beat it.

The hey thread might top it. But I essentially agree. A close test that goes the full 5 days is the best of sports

 

[Proper Gander]

Genuinely adore a cliff-hanger in a test!

And I’m like lots of people chewing their fingernails off the day before, thinking we’ve left it too late to declare and will end in a draw. But it’s actually pretty cool for a captain to back in his team and decide they have enough time in a day

If only he was a real man hey.

Do they not use hotspot anymore? I thought that it might have been helpful in that review... or i guess it could have confused the third umpire more idk

Thought that India don’t want it. Or was that ball tracking in the past?

 

[Crimson Azure]

Whoever won, this was the best test in along time.

 

[stEdy]

Aussies only won because India played bad though

 

[Topkent]

If only he was a real man hey.

If he was less woke it's over on day 3 let's be real

Actually devastated I couldn't rub that one in

 

[Topkent]

That Webster campaigners massive for a cricketer
Seeing him at slip/gully doesn't look right

 

[jhong]

Did look like it touched the ground to save Kholi .

Such an inconclusive angle to take away a catch that good

At normal speed it looked out . Another Tv umpire might of given it out . Hilarious we can see spots on the moon clearly but these cricket images are grainy.

Technology in all sports is used so ****ing badly. It's like it's used to take away great moments now instead of encouraging them.

You know after the stink that was kicked up the MCG by the indians, we've had a big whinge by the aussies in commentary this morning. All they talked about for the next couple of hours of the morning session.

Yeah sure it sucks ass, and not much else happened after that so i get you gotta talk about something. But like move on and get on with the game, the players have

Also i don't blame the TV umpire looking at shitty frames, as it's been said if the field umpires made any kind of ruling they probably would have leaned to that through the way they work through it. If the field umpires had given it not out we would have just spent 10 minutes doing the same thing to reach the same conclusion. If it's given out i don't think the DRS has enough conclusive evidence to overturn the field umpires call. But yeah, they left it ALL to the DRS without making a call. Ultimately if you didn't have the DRS at all, someone still was going to have to make a call that would have rubbed one country the wrong way

Personally and finally in my own opinion. I am not an expert and every other disclaimer that shouldn't need to be said on a internet forum. I think it was just grounded. If it was around the other way and called out all the aussie commentators would be saying you have to favour the batsman

Anyways in terms of bitching this week and last week, the two countries are squared up now on umpires calls they don't like. Get on with the game

 

[jhong]

Anyone would think M. Marsh has passed away the way they are talking . He is out because he made only one score in double figures this test summer.

 

[Dory_77]

Lol another DRS decision for one side to moan about
