***Official*** 2nd Test at Adelaide

[Spikey]

thought it was a bit high based on the ones anderson didn't get a couple of days ago

 

[morgieb]

This doesn't look a great decision.

 

[morgieb]

That's a bit unlucky. Though tbf Smith was quite lucky with the first one.

 

[Spark]

Dead.

 

[Starfighter]

That was close.

 

[DriveClub]

So its andersons fault

 

[Pothas]

Haha, the one that looks so much less out.

 

[Spark]

HAhaha okay actually very marginal.

 

[Spark]

That's a bit unlucky. Though tbf Smith was quite lucky with the first one.

You are 100% not lucky if you get given out with the ball pitching outside leg stump. I don't know where this trope has come from if a batsman is "lucky" if they cop a wrong decision which is then overturned by DRS.

 

[SeamUp]

Only gave England a small chance if you got skittled.

Surely made more sense to send them in again but ultimately England's batting line-up is very fragile right now that tomorrow should be fine as well with the Oz bowlers having rest.

 

[Groundking]

right lads you have 12 minutes to get Handscombe and the prick nightwatchman (like ****ing wwwwhhhyyyy) out and we've got a sniff.

How is this unlucky?

 

[Son Of Coco]

Time to call stumps early. The light is clearly not good enough to continue.

 

[Spikey]

oh marsh scores a ton and thinks he deserves a nightwatchman eh

 

[Starfighter]

Of course we shield Darsh.

 

[morgieb]

How is this unlucky?

Was barely hitting the top of the stumps (and therefore umpire's call), also umpire's call as to whether it was in line.

IMO if you get two umpire's call you can consider yourself somewhat unlucky.

 

[Spark]

How is this unlucky?

Those often aren't given tbf.

 

[DriveClub]

There's no umpire's call on something which is completely 100% definitive i.e. where the ball hit the ground

Imo the margin should be changed to 75%. If 49% of the ball pitched inline that pitched inline comfortably

 

[Starfighter]

Cummins should be nightwatchman, if we are going that strategy. Might even get a good innings out it.

 

[adub]

Cricket is so much more interesting with the bowlers are in the game.
