Isn't clear didgeridoo. There is a spot when the ball passes the bat which stays on the bat.

You don't even need hotspot or snicko there.
You could clearly tell the ball deflected just by the change of its trajectory.
The ball went straight up after passing the bat.

Llong is an idiot.

He was walking. Case closed

No common sense from the umpire. Sometimes you have to put two and two together. He's walking off, and there is a massive mark that stays on the bat all through hot spot which only comes onto the bat as the ball passes, and the bat is not not where the pad or the glove or the ground so what the heck else could it be? Get off the grog ump.

This is typical Australia batting for the last 2/3 years to be honest.

If we are on top, 1/200 kinda stuff they will all come out and look the business.

But if we ever struggle and are 3/80 kinda stuff, not one middle order batsman will have a go, show any brains or courage.

Unstoppable when things are going great, no where to be seen when the hard slog is required.

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.

Anyone notice when he asked to check for LBW it wasn't even the right delivery that was being ball tracked..

Front on hotspot clearly showed the mark on the bat only appeared when the ball passed the bat. Not sure what other evidence he would need.
