*Official* Fifth Test at the Oval

[LegionOfBrad]

That play and miss from Neville is how he's been getting out before. Just lucky it was 4th stump line.

 

[adub]

It wouldn't get to 15. After the second you'd pull your mark back a bit to get it right. If you aren't getting called you don't know you're over stepping. It's an important part of the umpire's job and they've just decided **** it, if it's a wicket it'll get picked up.

fmd that chin dip of nevill's is so watling

 

[LegionOfBrad]

As shown on the Sky Verdict in the last match. Have someone in the box calling the no balls with hand on a massive klaxon button. Job done.

ICC will committee it for 2 years before they do what is obvious.

And India probably won't allow it.

stokes is gonna get nevill with the inswinger this over imo

 

[Zinzan]

Damn it, I was quietly hoping Marsh would score a 50 at least and would be in the starting XI for the 1st test vs. NZ. I could see Boult and co having plenty of fun with him, even in Australian conditions.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Two men back for the hook for nevill? Does he even play that shot?

Stupid field imo

They'll have Maxwell smashing them to all corners instead

I'd assume it's because he keeps getting out (or not given) on the strangle.

you do realise they're going to pick Maxwell now, right?

It's only 15 runs unless you lose by less than that, then it becomes a major issue.

Even more reason to have a leg slip/gully/short leg instead surely?

I can't see him hooking too many 140km/hr deliveries to deep square

maxwell isn't terrible. i hope he has a good test career tbh.

 

[Zinzan]

It will be interesting if in the future Smith tempers his extravagant movement across the stumps when playing in real swinging/seaming conditions or just continues it regardless.

 

[GIMH]

It's only 15 runs unless you lose by less than that, then it becomes a major issue.

Probably fewer than 1% of tests then, even ignoring whether the fourteen that come after the first happen if the first is called

However. Stay behind the line ffs

 

[Gnske]

Is there anything more soulless than Shane Warne's laugh?

 

[adub]

Smitteh! WAG

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Well done Smitteh
