*Official* First Test at Trent Bridge

[Cooky Monster]

Hahaha, its all going on now.

 

[Spikey]

did that even carry

all the luck is gone

oh yeah. just

 

[Maximas]

deflection was a trick of the light?

 

[NUFAN]

It really makes the decision to review that Patto LBW shout even more poor now.

 

[MW1304]

Hahaha that is hilariously bad.

 

[Cabinet96]

Love Broad. Wasn't going anywhere.

 

[Stapel]

WALK! Come on. I can see not walking when there was just a feather, as there might be a doubt. But this?

Broad's a ****ing ****!

 

[NUFAN]

Shoulda reviewed oh wait you wasted them, still bad decision.

We didn't waste the first one. The ball was hitting the stumps.

Agreed on the second review though.

 

[BeeGee]

That's why you don't waste your reviews on 50/50 calls.

Clarke only has himself to blame.

 

[Prince EWS]

That might be the worst decision I have ever seen.

Symonds "not" caught behind in Sydney 2006 was much worse for mine. I've seen plenty worse on YouTube though thanks to Robelinda2. Definitely never want to see home umpires again.

 

[Cabinet96]

Maybe Clarke will become less of a go for it reviewer now...

 

[Stapel]

Must be said: Do not waste reviews!

 

[LegionOfBrad]

While that is one of the worst decisions ever seen. Their second wasted review was completely ridiculous.

 

[Spikey]

I mean, there was a massive noise right?

 

[grecian]

I can't remember who it was, but when talk was up about Bell potentially being dropped for the Australia tour, they said that he did have previous success in Australia, but it was all easy runs. Which is pretty harsh given his most notable performances in the last series came during England's only two batting collapses.

The whole soft dismissal thing really started to piss me off during the one dayers earlier in the season. It's almost like people were expecting him to only ever get out to jaffa's, even when trying to up the run rate. Chipping it to cover on a road in a test match is soft, getting out caught on the edge of the circle during the slog of a one dayer isn't.

TBH, I'm not sure why people still argue it. Clearly it's not true, but to paraphrase Fox Mulder, some just want to believe.....

 

[Burgey]

It really makes the decision to review that Patto LBW shout even more poor now.

Lol, no respectable cricketer would ever think an international umpire would get that decision wrong tbf.

 

[Pothas]

Haha Broad.

 

[Maximas]

Symonds "not" caught behind in Sydney 2006 was much worse for mine. I've seen plenty worse on YouTube though thanks to Robelinda2. Definitely never want to see home umpires again.

that was definately worse, keepers gloves made this one slightly forgivable

 

[sledger]

Oh well, at least Australia have their excuse now. Had to come from somewhere.

 

[Garson007]

Sad state of affairs for Australian cricket that they're only able to outbid England for the third umpire.
