2nd Test at the MCG, Melbourne, 26 Dec - 30 Dec 2020

[halba]

joe burns' career is over.

 

[Gob]

He apparently prays before every innings

I pray before going out every friday yet I only land at best solid 5s

 

[OverratedSanity]

I agree with them on removing umps call for ball tracking tbh.

No

 

[Gob]

joe burns' career is over.

So is Steve Smith's

 

[Spark]

settle down matthew you played one good shot

 

[Spark]

No

yeah everyone jumps all over this until one that nicks the corner of leg stump is given out and, quite reasonably, they then conclude that those should not generally be given out

Treat every night like Mohammed Atta and you can crash into twins

 

[Burgey]

Any update on Yadav’s quadricep concussion?

Also there is a margin of error and it makes sense that when it’s within that margin of error, the guy on the field who saw it live should get the benefit of the doubt.

 

[Nintendo]

Jeez pant chats some **** behind the stumps.

 

[Spark]

the deadly straight break strikes again

 

[Spikey]

I'm expecting Marnus to be recalled due to a noball

 

[stephen]

Woeful batting that.

 

[Gnske]

Stocks in Burgey Pty Ltd are nose-diving quick

 

[Nintendo]

Unless you're Furball #legstumpisastump

 

[OverratedSanity]

Thats so good from Ashwin

This happens a lot less often than the other instances where like 30% of the ball is smashing into the wickets.

And last I checked nicking the corner of leg stump is still out.

It just makes zero sense to go back to rely on an inferior method to make a decision after the time has already been taken to go through the superior method. Unless there are specific instances where an umpires judgement is better than ball tracking, I just don't see the logic.

Cmon smudge its time to shine
