Craig McDermott's "in-ducker" delivery

[Burgey]

In fact, I have to congratulate those CWers which can recall anything done by a SL team in Australia that wasn't Sanga being awesome or Ranatunga being simpering, whinging buffoon.

Malinga in that same Sanga innings. He had a fairly decent cameo.


Murali caught something in that game too that was moderately impressive.

Otherwise... yeah...

He got Hashan Tillekaratne lbw IIRC. Total look of bewilderment on Hashan's face after he was given out was due to the absolute ****tiness of that decision, which was one from a series of many. But even in comparison, that one was absolute garbage. Only one ****tier than this was when Steve Waugh was given notout off Pushpakumara when the keeper took the edge in front of the 1st slip. Umpire was Randall on both occasions IIRC.

Not sure what is worse, the decision(s) or Greig's insistence that both were absolutely plumb. I'm sure the LBW law is, and has always been 'beyond reasonable doubt'. I'm not sure getting hit on the Jap's eye from that angle to a left-hander qualifies

 

[robelinda]

Wasnt it Paul Reiffel who got caught behind and wasnt given? ive just been watching all the SL v Aus matches in that series and no Steve Waugh decision exists, yet.

Dunno what video you're watching..

 

[robelinda]

Here is the Pushpakumara caught behind.

 

[smash84]

The ultimate slower ball, tbh. Was barely quick enough to disturb the timber.

yeah, probably the finest slower ball ever.

 

[robelinda]

this one's not too bad!

 

[OverratedSanity]

Just found the Razzaq one I was talking about. So, so good

lol....the batsman actually was a bit of a numpty IMO

Adds to the hilarity. Haven't seen another slower ball fool a batsman with so much dip.

Harmison to Clarke at Edgbaston was awesome too, especially as it was the last ball of the day. Wasn't very well disguised at all, but it was just so damn unexpected

 

[Prince EWS]

Hashan's wasnt too far away

De Silva might've be slightly outside the line but man oh man Tillekeratne was absolutely plumb. Dire post from Migara.

That's what made it almost perfectly disguised, really; the balls before it were probably Harmison's nastiest of the day.

No, that's not the one I'm talking about. He bowled Dharmasena.

You are correct.
