how many overs left today?

33 + extra half hour.

 

[Prince EWS]

Yeah it looks like we're definitely coming back tomorrow.

Who do people think would be the most reliable batsman to get you over the line in a situation like this? Waugh? Chanderpaul?

Number of times finished not out in a successful fourth innings chase:
Batting records | Test matches | Cricinfo Statsguru | ESPN Cricinfo

Ponting has the most runs in those circumstances fairly comfortably and he's second on innings; I reckon he's a fair shout.

 

[GIMH]

Fielder's face suggests not out

 

[grecian]

Hopefully Bell will play some shots, not silly, but natural game, really don't need any more atrophy. Let's just knock these runs off.

 

[Neil Pickup]

This is out - and that's completely the wrong decision from the third umpire.

 

[Spark]

Haha how is there not Hotspot? That's a huge edge.

This is easily out ffs. Give it.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

That was out!!!!!

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Wow thats a massive call! That looked out. Maybe Azhar saying he wasn't sure gave it to Strauss

 

[Prince EWS]

I had a feeling they'd give that not out. Stupid though.

 

[ajdude]

rigged as ****

 

[Spark]

FFS that's bull

 

[grecian]

Thank **** for Bowdens incompetence.

 

[fredfertang]

... benefit of the doubt

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Billy Bowden you ****

 

[Cevno]

Wow! He has not given it for the catch? Or the edge?

 

[Neil Pickup]

Haha how is there not Hotspot? That's a huge edge.

This is easily out ffs. Give it.

I think there was a hotspot, but it was almost totally blind to us as it was virtually the back of the bat which then twisted in Strauss' hands. He has to make the absolute maximum of that life.

That is ****ing ridiculous.

 

[ajdude]

shoulda been 26/3 tbf

 

[Pothas]

Strauss a very lucky man Indeed, use that luck now Andrew.

 

[Tom Halsey]

That's among the worst third umpire decisions I've ever seen.
