what a dumb arse decision - wow

That is ridiculous. George Bailey , what a turd you are you Mong stanced douche. The batsman was veering away from the wickets. If he felt a direct hit was coming and wanted to get in it's path he would have either carried on his line, or moved off the pitch.

You George, are a goose.

"Just in case the Law was not clear enough, the ICC Playing Conditions for Twenty20 international cricket state:

For the avoidance of doubt, if an umpire feels that a batsman, in running between the wickets, has significantly changed his direction without probable cause and thereby obstructed a fielder’s attempt to effect a run out, the batsman should, on appeal, be given out, obstructing the field. It shall not be relevant whether a run out would have occurred or not."

I think this changing of the line or direction applies to t20 only

Be very interesting if bowler is going for a catch and get in front of the line the batsman is running

Batsman holds his line runs into the bowler who drops the catch, then throws at the stumps and hit the batsman who in the collision was forced to change his line

Call in Shine Lawyers...

I thought Bailey's decision to appeal for obstructing the field was very poor form and you can sense from the body language between McCullum and Bailey in the post match interview that McCullum holds that view as well

Due to site maintenance we wont be able to comment of the thunder destroying the scorchers tonight..

 

[Fangs]

I don't agree with the decision but why did Ross run inwards? If he runs straight chances are it hits him and saves a direct hit.

Still a poor decision.

This.

'He wasn't watching the ball' - Gilchrist

Except for about 1 hour and 15 minutes before he dived into his crease. I think he knew exactly where that ball was going and tried to be a bit too cute and made a mess of it. Looked pretty stupid as he finished his dive.

However its till not conclusive, should have been not out.

I hear that if say "Justin Langer" in front of a mirror 3 times, he will appear and tell you "that you've gotta win the contest".

On debut David Boon told JL he was a soft merkin.

David Boon knows.

[Bazal]

George Bailey would have appealed for obstructing

Fergo has been poor, wasnt good for the renegades nor the strikers either

love him to bits as a one day player and should have played a lot more for Aust.

 

[hineyrulz]

That’s a fair shot.

 

[_snafu_]

Khawaja going off.

 

[blaza88z]

I am well and truly on the Thunder bandwagon tonight
