Shaheed needs to go a bit closer to the stumps to get a better line to the Khawaja.

Half a ball needs to hit to overturn a not out decision. This was given out

There's a good case for Khawaja that he has been the best Australian Test batsman since his return to the team in January 2022:
Innings: 41
2081 runs @ 57.80
50s: 11
100s: 7
50+ Scores: 18
Not Outs: 5
Highest Score: 195*

Not when it's given on field
That makes no sense. The half a ball required is due to the error in the system so you could argue ball was missing the stumps by half a ball so could be overturned
Crap umpire decision either way

That's the point of having umpire's call. Otherwise the umpire's decision is irrelevant.That makes no sense. The half a ball required is due to the error in the system so you could argue ball was missing the stumps by half a ball so could be overturned

And even if 1% of the ball is hitting the stumps it should technically out. Overturning an out decision to not out because less than 50% of the ball is hitting would be absurd

There’s also precedent for poor workload management in the Pakistan set up.
Iirc Amir when came back from the long hiatus and they bowled him to the ground over the next 3 years. He had something close to the most number of overs bowled in international cricket for a duration of time and has directly pointed at it as a reason for his early retirement.

He does have a point re Smith always thinking he’s not out, though I think it falls well short of dissent.
Maybe it’s spreading within the team. Was it Warner who got away with a really bad one recently in the World Cup? Wade in the recent T20 series deserved a penalty for the no-ball call as well.
Personally I’m all for dissent. Keeps umpires in check.

Well he walked away in a world cup final
Personally I think most of the Aust players are sick of Joel Wilson's incompetence

Has been quite magnificent in Australia’s two most important way tours: Ashes 2023 and BGT 2023. Quite underrated

This is such a typical 4th day Perth pitch. Pretty good for batting other than that one ball every few overs that either shoots through or explodes off a length

I think they should call the match off as it's clearly too dangerous to bat on.
Underrated by who? Pretty sure most Australians would rate Khawaja our best bat since his recall.
