oh rohit

 

[stephen]

Great catch.

 

[marcus1232]

I mean how much more do you need? It pretty obviously missed the glove as it went past and by the time it went up, it was a good six inches behind.

I'm not disputing the fact he may not have hit it I am disputing there wasn't true evidence to prove that he didn't get glove on it.

 

[morgieb]

Excellent catch that. Not a smart shot.

 

[vcs]

It was a ridiculously hard decision to make, I have no idea how umpires are even able to do it, there should be an option for an umpire to be able to say "I have no ****ing clue, I'm sending this up"

****, Sharma gone

 

[h_hurricane]

The moment they showed his average as 47, I knew he was gone.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Weird shot

I don’t really get the distinction. You saw the same replays that I did, it seemed plenty conclusive to me.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Pujara has to get a big one here. Ideal pitch for him to get a score. Only one capable to getting that big daddy ton.

What would be true evidence?

none of the camera angles conclusively showed he didn't get bat or glove on it. The one camera shot that would of shown if he did or didn't was blocked by wades wide rear.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

What is this about

On Seven, Simon Taufel has a segment where he will briefly appear to say some blather about umpiring, usually after decisions (and in a small box in the corner of the screen the majority of the time). He is doing it from a room with all sorts of memorabilia lying around: framed posters, bats, stumps, etc.

If an Australian batsman was involved, would you have said it should be given out?

 

[h_hurricane]

One of those all format stats - Rohit Sharma becomes the first cricketer to hit 100 sixes against Australia before he got out.

 

[Spark]

none of the camera angles conclusively showed he didn't get bat on it. The one camera shot that would of shown if he did or didn't was blocked by wades wide rear.

The combination of the front-on camera angle showed that it didn’t touch the glove or the bat as it was going past, before the impact with the pad, as there was a gap, and the side-on angle from point showed that after it hit the pad and rolled up his thigh, it was already well behind the gloves and couldn’t have possibly come into contact. There was more than enough evidence IMO.

The first camera angle showed ball was nowhere near bat

****, Sharma gone

I see you simping for that cnerd like

 

[marcus1232]

If the decision was given not out on field we are having a different argument

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Also, Rohit's dismissal has just rendered all the foregoing arguing superfluous

 

[Spark]

Yeah as soon as i saw the first replay I said “oh he’s missed that easily” (and posted as much)
