how the **** is that overturned....

 

[Nintendo]

That calls gonna piss A LOT of people off if duckett goes on to win this.

 

[Spark]

I mean hasn't he got control of the ball and then just broken his fall afterwards? That should be out by the letter of the law but he's still an idiot

 

[TimAngas]

Well it's definitely not as clear cut as Nasser Hussain is making out, at least.

 

[Aidan11]

Australia will still win.

Just delaying the inevitable.

 

[Calm_profit]

Starc returning the favour to Green

 

[ripper868]

Does this now mean every catch Bairstow takes is overturned due to lack of control?

 

[loterry1994]

Wtf is wrong with these umpires

 

[Shri]

wow guys so excited

 

[Jfry]

They have changed the way the game has been umpired for hundreds of years without telling anybody. Complete control

He has to finally take a catch first.

Joe Root , SCG 2018 Test

Oh my, that's even longer ago than I had thought.

 

[Alex0paul]

Absolute ****

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Herchele Gibbsesque

Twin 50s in the match for Duckett. Lucky with the dropped catch, but well played thereafter. Any idea the last time one of England's batters made 50s in both innings in an Ashes test?

I’ve just had a look at a few scorecards. Obviously Root came close last Test. Buttler came close in the 5th in 2019. Didn’t even bother looking at the Fake Covid Ashes. I’ll leave this for someone else. @Howe_zat

@Kenneth Viljoen has beaten you to it. Root (obviously) at the SCG in 2018 apparently.

Fingers were underneath anyway

Sorry, yes, "any" should have been the word instead of every

 

[Jfry]

Should be hell to pay for that decision tbh
