*Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

[Swingpanzee]

But the decision was out caught behind so Rogers has referred that decision. He hasn't reviewed the LBW decision. So once he hasn't hit it that should be it. England should also, of course, be afforded the chance to review the LBW though.

That doesn't make any sense, really.

 

[Dan]

No but the burden should be on England to call for that review.

I agree actually; Rogers was reviewing being given out caught behind, not the LBW. If it were given not out caught behind, England should then have to counter-review under the LBW law or something.

Rogers reviewing a caught behind he didn't hit shouldn't result him being given out for something else, IMO.

agree with this

Tony Hill and Aleem Dar. What a pair.

What are you going on about? Aleem Dar has done nothing wrong here. It's embarrassing that Hill needs someone to tell him the rules.

 

[NUFAN]

Hill should have just said yeah yeah, I gave him out LBW, ball was clearly hitting the stumps..

 

[Swingpanzee]

(this is for, swingpanzee mainly)

Huh?

Are you drunk?

Imagine if he played 5ths and he had to umpire his team mates. Would be the most hated man on his team.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Hands up who thinks Gunner or Pistol wouldn't make a better job of umpiring than Hill, regardless of perceived nationaistic bias.

 

[Dan]

when you think about it as problematic as DRS is, the amount of wrong umpiring decisions is so ridiculous. It's almost like a 50/50 chance the decision will be wrong.

Because obviously the only decisions umpires ever make go to DRS.

 

[Riggins]

its interesting that if the umpire gives an lbw not out on the basis of an edge but thinks it's smashing the stumps, then there is no edge, the batsmen retains the 'umpires call advantage.'

 

[Ruckus]

Whats happens in this case:

-Rogers given out caught behind.
-Decides to review.
-He isn't out caught behind, but is out lbw.

Do Aust lose a review?

Bairstow might save more runs in the field than he scores with the bat.

@Jesse_Hogan: OFFICIAL! England now has an inferior DRS record this #ashes compared to Australia. England 4 of 19, Australia 4 of 18. #success

"I was unsighted by the bowler in his follow through" - every time a guy gives his best mate not out.

Why wouldn't they?

That's the point, they shouldn't check the LBW in the first instance unless it is specifically reviewed by the bowling team.

No. Aleem Dar didn't do anything really wrong here, it's his discretion. Hill was in the wrong. What I'm saying is neither are particularly good umpires.

 

[91Jmay]

Bressie looked docile there.
