*Official* First Test at the Gabba

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Hussey - you lucky son of a gun.

 

[irottev]

I mean you can understand not giving that because it sounded like an edge live, but wow.

I disagree. Looked plumb live too. Dar made a **** up.

 

[King Pietersen]

In Dar's defence, I thought it was bat first in real time.

This. Sounded like he hit the cover off it to me live.

 

[Ruckus]

Dar a bit gun-shy now I reckon. Bit of a downside to the URDS.

Na I think it was fair enough, there were two noises, but it wasn't the bat. Should have been out, but I can see why he made the decision.

 

[Pizzorno]

So much for Jimmeh having a stinker in this series and being ditched by the 3rd Test then, bowling beautifully here. He's all over Hussey with the in-swinger. Lovely stuff. What a man.

Let's just see if he bowls just as well in a few overs time as the frustration of not taking a wicket grows though.

In Dar's defence, I thought it was bat first in real time.

That just proves that you were also horribly, horribly wrong.

 

[Debris]

We are now seeing the price you pay for trying to review marginal decisions. England have nothing to complain about.

 

[Nate]

Oh Brad!

haha

Haha, loved it.

 

[hazsa19]

we'll bowl worse than this and skittle a side for 150, come on find a nick

 

[Jacknife]

Really slow replays compared to skys home broadcasts.

 

[Athlai]

Hussey and Haddin to hit there way out of trouble soon.

 

[irottev]

This. Sounded like he hit the cover off it to me live.

Did sound like it. Didn;t look like an edge though its hard to tell by look sometimes.

 

[Pizzorno]

sigh, this has got 'one of those days' written all over it.

This. Precisely. Whether the rule is right or not, you've got to use what you've been given wisely.

 

[pskov]

Defo didn't edge that. No wobble on the bat and the ball rotation didn't change. Just a very unlucky.

 

[Jacknife]

2 pads and didn't hit it on replay

 

[Neil Pickup]

This, absolutely. Fielding captains need to get a lot smarter with their referrals.

Didn't know a regulation edge was a 'marginal decision'

 

[Jarquis]

Yes we do, Dar still got the decision wrong.

 

[GIMH]

What were the referrals we used? Can't remember
