Assuming we had referrals in this series, would we have gotten the correct decision? Can the video umpire utilize hotspot?
IIRR, yes they can - whether Hussey would've referred it is a different matter.

And how much different the entire series would be at this particular point with referrals, which would've thrown this series as they have all others they've been involved in into chaos, can only be imagined.

GOT 'IM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was just about to say I can't see North hanging around to much long at this rate. Then bam, he ****s up again. Great stuff North.

Missing the point tbh. These things happen to everyone, but no one is calling Rnglandor Rudi a cheat, CA isn't goin to have Rudi sacked, and there won't be effigy burning either. The reaction in Sydney was much worse than what transpired on field. If the Aus cricket community acts
here like the Indians did after Sydney, I'm ceasing to
follow the game.
one thing you are missing out is that, in sydney we were not loosing and this test you were any way not winning

cool down mate that reaction is enoguh to suggest how you are feeling :)
any way let it go but take some time to read the reaction of some aussie posters here and you all get blamed for that handful. hope you guys can comeback and win the next test like we did(or was it the last test ??)

All of which distort the picture.

So Doctrove was closer to the action and wasn't obstructed by distortions. All adds up, to me, to the thought that Doctrove might just have had a better view than anyone looking at that pic.
Except Ponting. Otherwise he'd not have asked for verification.

Of course he would have referred it.

Can someone quickly explain the Sydney references for me?
On day 5 in Sydney Dravid was given out caught behind and he didn't hit it. Completely out of character of course, anumber of Indian fans saw this as a sign of enormous conspiracy because "Gilchrist and all the close fielders MUST have known he didn't hit it".

We don't mention they lost 9 other wickets in 2 sessions incl 3 in the last over to a part timer on a featherbed.


Oooh - nice arm ball there from Swann does for North.
