1st Test - Australia v India at Melbourne Dec 26-30, 2011

[chrisD]

He did miss it, tough decision, but after the Huss it's all turning into a bit of a farce.

 

[El Diablo]

now Cowan wasn't out

f**k India. time to ban these merkins

 

[skeepe]

Lol. Same old rubbish

Except snicko has proven me right. Hotspot too.

 

[Bazal]

I'd like to see hotspot on Cowan's wicket, I'm convinced he missed it.

Looked like it. Not a horror decision, but still annoying

EDIT-Nothing on hotspot

 

[The Joker]

It seems so long as everyone appeals, it's good enough

 

[Twizzle]

Cowan not out according to hot spot

 

[cleary89]

didn't hit it again, the umpires need to get the sack or tendulkar needs to get hit by a bus. either one.

 

[Timbo]

This is getting ridiculous. Can the ICC tell the BCCI to go and get f**ked please?

This is beyond ridiculous.

 

[ElectricEelMan]

The last two wickets were NOT OUT!

Australians should just shout at everything when India comes into bat.

BAN INDIA FROM PLAYING IN AUSTRALIA EVER AGAIN UNTIL THEY ENDORSE THE USE OF DRS!

 

[skeepe]

Cancel the rest of the series unless DRS is brought in. Neither of the last two wickets were out.

 

[Red&BlackBear]

Hussey & Cowan I believe have been screwed over due to a lack of DRS. Which puts Australia on the backfoot. Nothing on hotspot shown on either batsmen bat's. This is why vs. India games turn me slightly off, they claim that everyone else doesn't play in the spirit of the game but they single handedly are ruining the spirit of the game through their board.

 

[Bazal]

Except snicko has proven me right. Hotspot too.

I didn't say you were wrong, precious.

 

[hineyrulz]

Justin Langer can f**k off too

Did you hear that space cadet today???? Talking up our batting the last few years :lol: f**k me dead he is a totally clueless in denial muppet.

Shocking decision against Huss but something must be done. time to clean out the deadwood, it's the same old same old all the time.

 

[Panther_Daz]

India appealed and the umpire made the mistake? I don't know how that means they cheated. Australia have appealed for things not out in the past, Haddin being a classic example. He appeals for almost anything!

 

[Timbo]

Have Cricinfo outsourced their commentary to Bangalore? Check out the ball-by-ball comment for Cowan's wicket:

67.1
Ashwin to Cowan, OUT, Ashwin has a wicket. Cowan's supreme vigil comes to an end, and Australia are slipping down a familiar slope now. Cowan's been eager to cut Ashwin all day, and hasn't quite figured his drift and variety. This one again, was much too close to the body to cut, but he went for it, and thick-edged it into Dhoni's gloves. Very good take, that.



Thick edge? Blow it out your arse.

They've had plenty of Indians fulfilling commentary duties for a while now.

 

[hineyrulz]

Thick edge??? :crazy:

Yeah, a quick scan reveals:

Commentator Nitin Sundar | Scorer S Balasubramanian

Enough said.

 

[JW]

Time to send Erasmus the way of Steve Bucknor. That's what your supposed to do after a being on the wrong end of a howler, isn't it?

 

[El Diablo]

Cowan not out according to hot spot
