The way Smiff got out, both here and at Perth, he wouldn't average mid 30s in the 80s. This is a really good wicket, both teams have batted appallingly.

On the legside hot spot there was a frame after the ball passed that showed no spot. Then the frame after that there seemed to be one. No snicko. It was a reasonable decision in the end. Doesn't mean it was right.

I agree the umpire would have to give it out on the deflection with not a lot of backing from snicko or hotspot. Thats why he took a million years because he thought it was out and he was just looking for proof.

Another dude on cricinfo just noted the LBW review was of a completely different ball.

Looking how these two are going, this is a quality test wicket where spending time and accumulating is more than achievable.

You're right. Can't be lbw when you hit it.

Well played.

Bizarre review though. Clear spot on the hotspot, no Snicko.

You'd have thought a clear spot like that would have shown up on Snicko, for mine it even looked like a slight deviation off the bat on the front on angle. Your boys have every right to feel hard done by.

I think it doesn't show up on snicko when it runs along the edge
