Didn't look a straight line to me; the angle was changed after impact to my eyes. Seem to be slanting across slightly and then went straight on after it struck. Didn't look right to me.

Might be something to do with the aesthetics of the output. I remember once during the Australian Open, they had the outline of the tennis ball blurred in a shadow effect, and when the line call was played to the crowd it showed in even when the output had it out.

I've seen all the quick guys for the last 30 years and I reckon Tait is consistently the quickest of the lot - not the best by any stretch of the imagination but always very, very fast

I always thought Hopes' hairline was a result of some bowl haircut, but now he's buzzed it, there's not much forehead there.

Six, heyyy. There was only one in the entire Aus innings iirc.

Pietersen's rep as an ODI player is based on what he's done prior to the last World Cup.

Since 2007, Collingwood and Morgan have certainly been better, and there's an argument for Owais Shah and Ian Bell as well.

Two years is just "form" is it? Not even an argument here really. Morgan, by far superior. Oh, I see three years is it.

No he's not been put under much pressure mainly coz we have no-one to replace him. Bopara, Bell, Shah, it really isn't much competition.

How on Earth was that out? A leggie which hit out-side the line, how was that ever going to hit the stumps? Means we're relying on entirely on Morgan.

Ddin't have much going for it, that. Outside the line and turning wider. Although not (to my eyes) as much as Hawkeye would have us believe.

All on Morgers now then.

Terrible decision but no worse than the one given in favour of Kieswetter:)

Anyway, into the tail
