Shield Round 2: Victoria vs New South Wales, MCG, Oct 20-23

Correct?...lol.

It was hitting or clipping at worst

 

[eth-dog]

Correct?...lol.

Anybody that says it was definitely out or definitely not out is an idiot. It wasn't going over and I think it was probably clipping off stump

 

[Jimthegreat]

Kontas looked so good. Good to 43 on a tough pitch, then plays the most awful shot. What was he thinking there, especially when another 30 runs probably stitches up a Test spot

Still, he really looks a player. Good array of shots, good eye.

 

[Voice of the G]

Correct?...lol.

A fine,not a suspension.

 

[eth-dog]

Feel like Abbott is very close to going out.

At worst it’s 50/50 and personally you lose your benefit the minute you don’t play a shot. Use your bat it’s not that complicated

 

[LukeParkerno1]

He always is, always due a random 70 odd to cater to the he’s an all rounder thing NSW have going on. Stuffed if I know why Edwards wasn’t picked and I’m far from his biggest fan out here

Not sure why Nisbet is playing honestly. 18 overs out of 160-odd isn't really front line bowler rates. Edwards or Sangha would have been better. Especially with Edwards and Moises being handy enough with the ball.

 

[eth-dog]

Great ball Chief.

Two more wickets and I think they keep play going.

Didn’t like Sangha being dropped at all. He bowled well last match too

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Be nice if Starc cared an ounce about staying there while he’s batting been hopeless lately

 

[eddiesmith]

Correct?...lol.

Yep and if this was a test match he’d still be out!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Think so clipping at worst. Confident the Konstas one in the first innings would have been overturned and there was one in the Victorian innings was it Harris that I thought was iffy same umpire he was having a shocker the first two days .

 

[eth-dog]

25 overs until the new ball. Hopefully won't be needed, get two early and I expect us to run through.

Confident Konstas would have remained out as well, clipping at worst.

But Steve Smith being filthy is definitely no guide to a decision being right or wrong, reviewed so many caught behinds when he smashes it…

Clipping at best. Mate, take the Vic glasses off. Konstas almost certainly gets overturned, Smith probably umpires call

An ump shouldn’t be giving Konstas one and they shouldn’t have given Harris either another shocker.

Smith was out and said it all day just use your bat

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Agree with both. Harris very unlucky in the first innings too on the other side

I have just fell off my chair,"was it Harris that I thought was iffy"with his dismissal.lol.

Not going over, back pad in front of middle. If not giving them they shouldn’t be at the top level.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Don't think Smith got a roughy IMO.
Coming back to hit off stump.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Hey I can’t stand the crab but that was a woeful decision

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Angling in a mile it’s clipping at the utter most.

 

[Freezin]

Bumrah and Siraj will eat old Smithy alive this coming summer. Gonna be a horrific watch.

Get the same feeling as well.....Ussie too.....could get very messy.....not the way you see any player go out like that.....one can only hope not, but then it may fool some folk into thinking they will be right for the Ashes too.

Led by Smith himself thinking he’ll be right for the Ashes lucky England suck in Australia generally
