[Coronis]

Guys, I was just looking up Kohli's dismissals vs pace bowlers in the last few years and err... something seems to stand out a bit

Gee, I wonder what plans bowlers set to him. What could it be

Man I miss de Kock. Unretire for WTC final surely.

 

[Spark]

Do you remember where Phillips was for the duck off O'Rourke? That's the only other one I figured probably wasn't slip but I don't remember the dismissal.

Leg gully, bounced wickedly and took him on the glove.

 

[Coronis]

huge deflection here after it passes/touched bat or glove. as you can see.

Arm nowhere near the ball.

That’s Cummins’ patented extreme late swing after it passes the batsman.

 

[Spikey]

AB to make himself available 2 weeks out from the final

 

[TheJediBrah]

If Starc is injured or just can't make the turnaround I'd consider Jhye and Abbott for he and Marsh. Jhye's batting is pretty good and having Abbott, Cummins and Jhye at 7,8,9 should give you some runs. I'd be ok with that and be more likely to hold my breath over Jhye getting through uninjured.

Hang on have we forgotten #SCGsospinny

Got to pick 2 spinners. Lyon and Murphy I guess. Or Rocciciolli

Shouldn't have transitioned mate

Ok now I'm worried. But there isn't a second spinner in the squad which is hopefully the way it stays.

 

[Starfighter]

Given Marsh isn't contributing with bat or ball would anyone be ok with him being replaced by Abbott for Sydney?

No, Abbott shouldn't be near the squad. He's not international standard and has repeatedly proven so.

never mind, Big Beau can revert back to his offies to be 2nd spinner if needed. What a guy

Don't forget we have Travalitharan as well.

 

[silentstriker]

Aside from the two obvious passengers, Pant takes a huge portion of the blame for both of this shots this match.

 

[Start da Game]

india was winning this test until jaiswal decided to drop labusch at 46 which allowed aus to escape from jail

 

[Betterpolo]

I think it actually hit the bat as well lol.

Snicko just detects noise and there was none on the stump mic either. I think it kind of glided along the face of the bat and then flicked the thumb and it just didn't really make the clicky sound you usually hear, so the Snicko looked different.

That's my take too. Didn't see it live so haven't seen the strength and conviction of the Aussie appeal and review. If they were 100% convinced interesting if that was based on visual deflection or a sound the human ear can detect but snick can't.

(and yes I know I'm getting anal on this but find it genuinely interesting)

 

[Spikey]

Well watching it live I thought there was a noise and it was obvious to me that he touched it.

Here it is, Cummins reviewed immediately

Cummins ends Jaiswal vigil after third umpire intervention

Pat Cummins and the Aussies were convinced and a clear deflection off the gloves was all the third umpire needed to give Yashasvi Jaiswal out, even if Real-Time Snicko didn't pick up the noise

yeah its an option. Murphy/Rocciociolli with Beau webster to provide backup pace instead of Marsh.

faint deflection of glove give no decibel noise apparently. glove is a piece of fabric. thats why. not wood.

My strong suspicion is that it's so tailored to sharp nicks and fine edges that duller, more elongated (and hence lower frequency) sounds like the ball running off the face get filtered out.

 

[Kirkut]

‘“Now, great people in the back have said after he took 4-10 within 17 balls in Sri Lanka in 2022 he was quoted as saying, ‘I had to put the digit on ice’,” Brayshaw said.
“So that was the celebration. He said ‘I just got him and I’m putting it back on ice’.”’

Yeah, I was like wtf he meant by that at first.
