Dravid? Weren't you the one who was repeatedly screaming at the top of your voice for Dravid's head till a week or so ago? Or was it someone else?

.

I still believe Dravid won't do too well on the coming tours but there isn't anyone who can replace him at no.3 ATM as the youngsters have disappointed. I was expecting them to be alot better considering the sort of first class records they have.

Dravid's 38.5 now anyways, so won't be long before he retires...

(reckon he's ruined his record more than enough... avg is down to 52)

And I hope Raina doesn't get fined for that.. that reaction was pure disappointment rather than dissent. I hope the match referee can see that crucial difference.
it's chris broad. will be waiting at the boundary with the ticket,

Show the replay again FFS!!

Looked like it hit the gloves from the initial replay.

Don't think with the replays they have shown it would have been overturned with the UDRS too.

Dhoni's technique of pushing forward looks really vulnerable to Bishoo.. seems to work well against the likes of Murali but looks weak against quality leg-spin. Bishoo has got him out in all 3 innings he's bowled to him in international cricket.

:laugh:

Is true though. Can expect a fine for sure with Broad.

Even though his son keeps getting away with it:p.
really want the father to referee in a match involving his son, who is easily one of the most serial offender in cricket atm when it comes to umpiring indifference....

Where's your UDRS now?
Looks from that backside replay that it brushed his gloves coming off the thigh pad when it was rising even more.

Not conclusive by any means. So probably unless the Hotspot detected it which is not certain too it won't have been overturned.

So... what kind of score would we be willing to settle for here? Somehow feel WI can't keep collapsing every innings and Sarwan and Chanderpaul are due a big one any time.

EDIT : Dhoni. :(

That was a bad angle, it didn't touch the glove.

It looked from the initial front on angle too ,that hit the Gloves as i posted straightaway.

The commentators were not certain either. So as i said not conclusive....

Raina wouldn't have realised if it brushed the backside of his gloves in any case and hence the reaction. Happened before with Tendulkar in Srilanka too where he reviewed and was given out still as the original decision stood.

Regardless of what the commentators said, it was pretty clear it didn't touch the glove on replay.

From what replay?:-O

Looked likelier that it brushed the gloves from the 2 angles with a clear view there were ,rather than it not having brushed the gloves.
