Deflection an optical illusion etc...

In fairness, looked a terrible decision but so was the decision to review the clearly not out LBW. Two wrongs dont make a right though.

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.

Oh god, had managed to forget about the Symonds one. That is the worst for a good while though.

There was another where AB De Villiers edged to first slip off Zaheer Khan and was not given. That was an ODI though. Curiously that was by Aleem Dar too. LOL.

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

nah given the modifications to the review system that have happened, clarke shouldn't've reviewed. it was purely a stump thing. nothing to do with edges. don't review marginal lbw's anymore.

I don't blame him for not walking. I just find it quite remarkable Dar didn't give it out.

all very well and good for gower to call Clarke a naughty boy for using his reviews but that probably should've been given out maybe

Harder to tell when your standing at first slip in a test match than watching it on TV (I think).

Where was the other umpire btw? At square leg or was he at point? He would have had a perfect view at point you would imagine.
