***Official**** Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2014/2015

[Zinzan]

Yeah, Not sure what the point of using hot spot is if that was given not-out.

Big wicket, Herath looked dangerous.

 

[kiwiviktor81]

Trent Boult has better hearing than Snicko

 

[Zinzan]

I think it's out, but not enough to give it out?

What? lol..it's not an LBW.

 

[viriya]

Come on Pradeep.. hang around for the double ton kid.

 

[straw man]

Good decision. The snicko mic is in the stumps right? I wonder if the sound was obscured because Herath's bat and pads were between the noise and the mic.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Not sure if that was enough to overturn, but whatever we'll take it

 

[viriya]

What? lol..it's not an LBW.

Just because snicko had nothing.. I could see another umpire not giving it out honestly.

 

[Cabinet96]

Weird one that. Traditionally if one of hotspot or snicko doesn't pick up a feather, it's usually hotspot that fails.

 

[Athlai]

Wagner would have caught that.

Nah, what else could cause a dot to suddenly appear on hot-spot, just as the ball passes? As I said, there's no point using hotspot otherwise. The lack of noise on snicko, was negative evidence, the hotspot, positive.

 

[Athlai]

Haha Nisbo, that shot is not a good one for a new batsman with a full cordon.

 

[Athlai]

****s sake, Sangakkara just won't stay caught.

Guptill SOS.

Agreed. Absence of Evidence is not Evidence of Absence.

 

[Athlai]

Maybe if that young lady showed Sanga her boobs it would help the cause.

Someone pass the word on.

Not saying it wasn't out because I think it was, just that some umpires would take conservative option imo.

No 3rd umpire that deserves to keep his job given hot spot clearly showed an edge. It would of course be entirely different if the game was in the UAE where they don't have hot spot.

 

[Athlai]

Quick run out Lakmal.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Expecting a Sanga 150 by the time I wake up.

What a predictable **** he is.

 

[Swingpanzee]

Sanga you beauty
