*Official* First Test at the Gabba

[joels344]

I missed the first session due to a family dinner, but I had cricinfo updates on my phone. Finn and Anderson are on a good attack.

 

[M0rphin3]

Both made the same decision.

Dar decides, UDRS obeys

 

[NasserFan207]

So.. UDRS is so perfect and will eliminate all controversies, won't it?

Definitely not perfect, but I think most would agree its better than the old system.

Dar is on fire.

Both teams should learn by now - don't question Dar, you are just wasting your reviews.

 

[irottev]

I read it. But you said Australian conditions. Nothing about whether those conditions were good or bad for bowling. Second post was just "I rate Anderson and Finn" too.

I realize this was probably not worth the effort.

I rate them in general but I don't think they'll go well in Aus conditions (with less assistance generally) is what i'm saying. They've started well here though.

 

[M0rphin3]

Snicko suggests a noise just after it passes the bat. Weird, don't think I've ever seen that before.

Yep, probably some other noise coincided with that ball whistling pass the edge. Dar WAG

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Had Dar given Clarke, do you think it would have been overturned based on that evidence?

 

[Prince EWS]

There are more biased pro-Pakistan posts in this thread than in the Pak/SA thread FFS. Troll somewhere else.

 

[M0rphin3]

Malfoy's on

Had Dar given Clarke, do you think it would have been overturned based on that evidence?

Yep.

 

[NasserFan207]

Had Dar given Clarke, do you think it would have been overturned based on that evidence?

If Clarke had actually hit it, he wouldn't have gone for a review surely?

 

[irottev]

Had Dar given Clarke, do you think it would have been overturned based on that evidence?

I'd say no.

These umpires get appraised instantly, What a great feeling that should be. Not a single review has been successful in the WI vs SL 2nd test so far. Umpires are doing a great job.

Definitely not perfect, but I think most would agree its better than the old system.

Yep. Just had to watch how the India vs Aus series played out, noone was harking back to the days before the URDS and how much they miss it.

 

[outbreak]

Aussies to be 4/164 at the end of this session

Broad having a chat already...hope he bowls a shower of ****!

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Broad needs to follow the lead of Anderson and Finn and keep the pressure on.No freebies Stuart.Could just peopper him some short stuff and test his back out.

 

[M0rphin3]

I'd say no.

If hotspot fails to pick any edge, that'd be overturned surely? Snicko's not used in UDRS.

Think they're unused to watching a match where both sides are trying to win...

 

[irottev]

Broad having a chat already...hope he bowls a shower of ****!

He undoubtedly will. He's the most over-rated player in world cricket. Oh and he acts like a spoilt child on the field. Much like Watson. They'd be perfect for each other tbh.
