*Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

Also lmao yeah this is the 1% edge case where Hot Spot is actually useful

 

[Meridio]

Having seeing the replay a few more times I'm more and more sure that he's hit it. Certainly looks to deflect as it goes past the bat

 

[ataraxia]

Surely they should introduce some really basic image analysis technology to determine if there's a corner in the path of the ball? Much cheaper than HotSpot.

In principle you could do this with Hawkeye! Just superimpose the predicted track to the actual and see if it's off line after the potential impact.

 

[straw man]

Batsman knows they've hit it and Pant said he didn't, pretty conclusive imo

The third umpire in these situations should be asked to armchair analyse the batter's body language and facial expression for signs of guilt imo.

Pant face guilty.

haha was literally just writing this, yes an ML based tool to do this would be very easy but would have major limitations (wouldn't be any use for top edges or underedges)

World XI bowling at one end, Zimbabwe B at the other end

Atmosphere is so eerie. Like a Dubai Test

 

[King Kane]

I still don't know why we are bowling Phillips at that end, I would give Henry a bowl, he is more chance of taking a wicket and wouldn't leak many runs.

We don't have enough runs left to risk Sodhi now.

 

[honestbharani]

Seriously something wrong if they think we are scoring these 40 runs here with just these two out there. Ash is just a sitting duck against the SLA and Deep and Siraj will last 2 balls between them.

I think they'd attack Henry hard.

 

[Moss]

That is my point. Even if the ball did move, it did not move any more than regular turn would have it move. I just dont think there was a deflection.

Don’t quite agree, but the fact that there’s this much room for argument means it shouldn’t have been overturned I thought. No consolation for Pant obviously who was superb.

 

[mackembhoy]

Just seen the decision. Superb decision by Reiffel.

He gets an edge + hitting his pad.

O'Rourke hasn't bowled an over which seemly slightly surprising.

Have you seen who is batting for us? Anyone who can attack Henry is back in the shed now.

I don't really feel this should be part of the consideration though. The third umpire should go straightforwardly on what he sees on replays.

 

[Spark]

Lazy fielding

 

[Shri]

Deep and Siraj will last 2 balls between them

1 ball after siraj gets runout off a no ball and reviews it

 

[Burgey]

Another day, another Indian keeper carrying on like a pork chop at onfield umpires.

Too much carry on from Pant there with the gestures while waiting for the decision. The way he looked around after the ball went up in rhe air was a bit of a give away imo

Personally think he hit it on the replay and also his reaction live, but had they not given it with Nz retaining the review could have lived with that too.

I don't understand why they can't use both.
