***Official*** England in India 2016/17

[vcs]

Oh balls, Root keeps surviving somehow.. this could be his day.

 

[Contra]

India are gonna appeal for everything until their reviews are reset lol.

 

[Rootfan]

Yeah, but what are your thoughts on Joe Root?

Overrated. Not a patch on AB/Amla. Will have a Pujara like career with 20 home tons and 5 away tons.

 

[OverratedSanity]

It's unbelievable how much more unbearable Manjrekar has gotten recently.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Absolute ass gravy decision again. This is why we have DRS.

Given out purely on the appeal.

 

[Burgey]

Honestly, these sounds are like someone sitting on the Brasco and passing a particularly painful motion.

 

[Shri]

13 overs to go for the top up.

 

[Adders]

Jesus that's a ****ing awful decision. I know it's easy to say that with slow mo etc, but how does an international umpire give that out ffs?

This is what is really worrying me with DRS atm........I reckon the umpires are playing a bit with it.

India have no reviews but England do, so he gives it out knowing if he's ****ed up England have the chance to correct it. If he gives it not out India can't do anything and a potential crook decision stands.

This is not the way it should be handled IMO.

Doesn't Root already have 3-4 away tons?

 

[Rootfan]

Looks like Root will make a ton with 10 lives. Well at least it will improve the currently pathetic 8-3 ratio,

8-3

 

[Contra]

This is what i was trying to say with the smith decision against maharaj.

 

[Contra]

lol that was dead

Have you had *** in the last 5 years?

 

[indiaholic]

"How was that? Howzzat? How is that not out?"

 

[OverratedSanity]

Those two failed reviews yesterday have already cost us.

 

[Rootfan]

Had what?

So many opportunities created already this morning and we've only managed to get the sitting Duck(ett) out so far. Hope these missed chances don't come back to haunt us. These batsmen will surely settle down soon.

Not really, since even if we reviewed that decision given to Moenn it would have been not out as it was umpires call.
