1st Test: New Zealand v Australia at Wellington on Feb 12-16, 2016

[Timbo]

It's the only way he knows how to play I suppose. Useful if you have a lead.

 

[ANTiLAG]

Because the rules dont allow it

Yeah they do.

3rd umpire can call no balls on any wicket delivery. Just not overrule no balls called on the field. An on field ump can ask 3rd ump to look at anything that is not player reviewable (whether ball hit bat and lbw). 4s, 6s, catches, run outs, no balls, etc can be referred to 3rd ump.

 

[Snappy]

Perhaps Southee could have used the practice of trying to hang around and not go the slog, for when his team really needs it

Some text book batting from Trent Boult

 

[Meapro Ham]

I don't think some of you Kiwis are giving the Aussies enough credit. Khawaja and Voges in awesome form, throw in Warner and Smith, it's a very strong batting line up. Probably as strong as its been in the last decade. You're going to have to do a lot right to win against that line up. Maybe it's just a case of the Aussies being too good rather than he Kiwis lacking fight.

 

[ANTiLAG]

Southee with yet another innings of hard pure graft

:lol:

Good day for 6thee. 48 not a bad return for him.

Craig needs to bat ahead of Bmac.

 

[Pete Cash]

Yeah they do.

3rd umpire can call no balls on any wicket delivery. Just not overrule no balls called on the field. An on field ump can ask 3rd ump to look at anything that is not player reviewable (whether ball hit bat and lbw). 4s, 6s, catches, run outs, no balls, etc can be referred to 3rd ump.

lmao but thats not what happened. He called no ball on the field. What you are asking is why didnt he refer it upstairs before calling no ball. I dont know he must have thought it was a no ball lol

 

[Hutty1986]

Boult goes bang

 

[ANTiLAG]

lmao but thats not what happened. He called no ball on the field. What you are asking is why didnt he refer it upstairs. I dont know he must have thought it was a no ball lol

Look at the replays. I have.

The bails have flown everywhere before he calls it by moving the arm. Never an oral call. A possible no ball is examined on all wickets.

Look at the replays. I have.

Tough the rules are the rules. The umpire f**ked up but hey thats cricket and he clearly called no ball on the field. Are you blind.

I know that you are heading towards an innings defeat and you are sad but show some f**king dignity lol

Watch the replays.

I have.

The bails have flown before he moves his arm.

Can you read?

I know he makes an in field call, but he makes it late

 

[Pete Cash]

Watch the replays.

I have.

The bails have flown before he moves his arm.

Can you read?

And ?

He still called no ball on the field.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

This game needs a mankad to spice things up a little.

 

[Snappy]

Watch the replays.

I have.

The bails have flown before he moves his arm.

Can you read?

So what.

He (thought he) saw the no ball and his reaction to put out the arm was slightly slower than the 0.4 second of the time the ball took from bowlers hand to wickets. Deal with it.

 

[Timbo]

Craig should consider going the Richardson route and becoming a batsman. Looks much better at batting than bowling.

 

[8Ball]

:lol: Antilag oh dear

 

[ANTiLAG]

And ?

He still called no ball on the field.

A late one that was not necessary when 3rd ump could look at it.

That is the point.

Disagree with the point, but the facts are the facts.

I've looked closely at the numerous replays with stump mics on.

 

[Pete Cash]

Nobody gives a f**k detective antilag he did call no ball on the field.

 

[ANTiLAG]

So what.

He (thought he) saw the no ball and his reaction to put out the arm was slightly slower than the 0.4 second of the time the ball took from bowlers hand to wickets. Deal with it.

Wait until it happens to your team.

Then you'll think about the absurdity of it all.

 

[Pete Cash]

I am sure its happened to Australia. What does it matter. You win some and you lose some with the umpires.
