[Starfighter]

Oh thanks for that.

 

[Zinzan]

Lol, the 4 dismissals so far.

Already thinking that if NZ win this game they can put a big down part of down to straight luck

 

[BeeGee]

Neesham with all the luck.

 

[Bahnz]

Hahaha!

 

[Burgey]

I never understand why the umpires always conduct the mandatory unnecessary meeting in the middle. Just go straight upstairs ffs.

Fmd the kids had one at reps today which I wish had a third umpire. C&B which clearly half volleyed. The little **** keeping for the other mob even said "he didn't catch that" then went quiet when the bowler persisted with the appeal.

****ing umpires asked he kid if he caught it (both unsighted) and he saidyes.

My young bloke at the non strikers end who saw it clearly told the umpire it bounced, then told the opposition they're a pack of cheating ****s.

Lol Marsh. That's ****ed. Weirdly, one of our kids got run out like that this morning too.

TBF that's usually how they beat Australia if Hadlee isn't playing.

 

[indiaholic]

Why is Australia so unlucky Burgey?

We'll take it. That being said, didn't get the luck with that Smith decision.

Eh, if you don't review then that's not really luck.

 

[Moss]

Lucky dismissals for sure, NZ have been a bit erratic since the 10th so needed that. Smith looking determined to have the last word though, still feel the non review will hurt NZ.

Generally they aren't. It just usually takes NZ to have a **** load of luck to beat us. It's the reverse of rugby, where we need a mountain of luck to ever beat them.

What gets me about the Marsh dismissal was his lack of urgency to get back. I would consider it unlucky if he was moving back to the crease and was close to making it, but to be run out by so far was just really poor and not unlucky when you think about where he was on the field to the type of ball and shot that was played and the situation of the match.

Yeah edging a ball on the leg side to the keeper is not really bad luck.. Nor is it bad luck to inside edge a ball when your bat is coming down an angle to work it past the slips.

Indeed, Smith is always the key wicket and having just seen the replay of that ball I can't believe they didn't review it. It follows some unfortunate non-reviews by NZ in the Pakistan test series.

lol you cant be serious

 

[jcas0167]

lol you cant be serious

Is it more bad luck than any other mode of dismissal?

 

[straw man]

That's an awful drop.
