Apparently not.He looked pretty shaky under it! I was a bit worried!
Hussey to get 50?
Jesus he's missed that by the better part of a foot!!!
That's a horror.
Not just a close one got wrong, but a genuine horror!!!

I think there's going to be some more rain over night too, which should stop the pitch from drying out too much.
I was just about to say how dispiriting it must be for New Zealand's bowlers watching all their hard work being reduced to nothing time and time again. Punter's obviously doing his best to cheer them up.

Correct. Ouch to be Hussey.
Exactly. What the hell is this slow finger raising crap? If it's out, give him, if it's not, shake your head. Stop over dramatizing it. The suspense should come from the cricket, not whatever crap the umpire does.

Wow, just go to the IGA to stock up for beer o'clock and all of a sudden I see Rudi give that. Wow, just wow.
Up there with the one Bowden gave against Dhoni in an ODI a couple of years ago where he smashed it from about a foot outside off onto his pads yet was still given out lbw.

Haha, you serious? Who cares how he gives people out, that's so ****ing pedantic.Correct. Ouch to be Hussey.

So long as he makes the right decisions, who cares? There's no way he's the worst umpire on the elite panel either, I'd take Rudi before Rauf & Doctrove anyday.

Was against Bracken iirc, and hence plumb.

bit like bowden, but we let billy off coz he gets it right more often than not, rudi seems an alright umpire as a general rule but manages to get himself in the centre of a controversy all the time.Correct. Ouch to be Hussey.

kind of like chris broad as a referee, average player with a bad temper, now in charge of disciplining the worlds 'bad boys'
english umpires used to be the best around, now there's only benson really isnt there ?
