Look at the snicko replay, it actually often goes the best selection of angles.

They have, I think that's conclusive enough.

Unfair on Lyon as Australia hasn't had a quality second / part time spinner to give a different look in ages.
A Clarke like option would be nice, but as I wrote above I think Lyon simply doesn't spin it as much as he used to. Could spell trouble against India.

Rizwan a bit stiff there, it may have hit the wristband but I don't think it was conclusive.
I think that's special pleading. The replays clearly showed from all available angles it passed close to the wrist band (and not half way up his arm as he was motioning), there was a somewhat faint but definite warm mark in the right place on hotspot, and the snicko replay showed sound at the right time.

Still would be pretty pissed to be on the wrong side it, but that's human nature.

Not often Michael Gough gets a decision wrong.
Yeah he's a pretty good umpire, he's no Billy Bowden though, Billy probably would have given that not out just to troll the Aussies.

I remember him firing Damien Martyn out with a dodgy lbw decision in the 2005 Ashes series which helped England win that series.

There was no DRS back then to overturn the dodgy umpiring calls back then either.
