Really dire considering the three Fox Sports presenters were great.The official Fox Sports Australia Facebook account whinging about DRS. Disgraceful stuff.
Yeah was so lovely seeing Haddin walk at the end there, really showed the poms how to play the game....England won playing dirty, win at all costs cricket, well done.
when they showed it i thought it was a frame after but i doubt it could've been anything elseHang on a second...some joker on FB (might be bull**** for all I know) just posted a sequence of images showing that the snicko was well after the ball passed the bat
The sound was also well after ball passed bat
And to top that off, I switched to cricketweb when they showed the snicko and missed it
Are we sure the snicko was actually at the right time?
Umpires would just start giving everything out in that situation.Honestly, batting sides shouldn't get DRS reviews. What should happen is that every wicket is reviewed. The bowling side should get two to prevent howlers though.
Yeah they're frequently top shelf.Congrats to England, awesome match. Shame that the reviews will be talked about heaps as there were many memorable moments in the Test. Absolutely love Tests where the first innings scores of both teams are in the 200's.
Probably good they have a game to play on Thursday, another week may be harder stewing over it. As it is they will be up for the start of a test at headquarters.Glad it's not me that has to, I would be destroyed for months.

Even the mark off hotspot was ON before bat made contact with ball. Snicko isn't available for review anyway; I felt the umpire's call should've stayed. They reviewed the live action just twice and gave him out.Hang on a second...some joker on FB (might be bull**** for all I know) just posted a sequence of images showing that the snicko was well after the ball passed the bat

Only downside is it takes some of the excitement out of the game.Honestly, batting sides shouldn't get DRS reviews. What should happen is that every wicket is reviewed. The bowling side should get two to prevent howlers though.
I thought the same tbh. Snicko clouded the matter for me rather than confirming it.Hang on a second...some joker on FB (might be bull**** for all I know) just posted a sequence of images showing that the snicko was well after the ball passed the bat

Do you mean on here or generally? I think it's been pretty good in the tour thead tbh.Really dire considering the three Fox Sports presenters were great.
This game has exemplified all the reasons I love the Ashes.
And the reactions to this game - from fans of both sides, right through the match - have exemplified all the reasons I hate the Ashes.
The ball appeared to hit the back of the edge, making the sound appear later than one might expect. I thought it was out in real time and DRS confirmed it.Hang on a second...some joker on FB (might be bull**** for all I know) just posted a sequence of images showing that the snicko was well after the ball passed the bat
