It was hitting the stumps. You can't possibly say it was a bad decision...
Yeah that's true. I would never be confident enough to give that close one out though. As an umpire one needs to be 100% sure it will hit the stump and I wouldn't be confident enough when it is just clipping like that..

given that he gave it out pretty much instantly i'd say he was 100% sure

Yeah, think I'd rather have Clarke in going at fours as opposed to Maxi come in after 15 overs.
Clarke hasn't done that whole strike at 70 thing in a while anyway. He's scored pretty quickly in ODIs over the last couple of years IIRC.

This wont be a popular opinion, but I feel as though if we lost a wicket soon, someone like Johnson or Starc coming in next could be valuable for the LH RH combo and I really don't want Maxwell and Marsh coming in with over 30 overs remaining.

I think that was the sort of dismissal that looked worse live than it actually did.

Would have to be johnson surely, he does a lot better with time to play himself in, not much of a slogger from the outset
