*Official* 2nd ODI at Old Trafford

[Adders]

Hmmmmm, lucky ****.

 

[Adders]

There was a hotspot on the pad where the bat hit FFS.

Wouldn't be Watson without a review of some kind.

 

[Adders]

I can't believe how **** these commentators are......how come they haven't mentioned 2 hotspots on the pad but only one on the bat??

 

[Howe_zat]

That's a really good decision from the 3rd umpire, bat was in front of pad IMO.

And it's nice to see a third umpire know that it being close does not mean you get to cop out of making the call.

I think there were two hotspots on the pad tbh, but there was also a huge one on the bat where the ball would have passed. Don't see what else that could be.

 

[MW1304]

No snicko whaaaaat

Huh?? There were 2 hotspots on the pad and if there is only 1 on the bat then he hasn't hit it......the hotspot on the bat was from hitting the pad.

 

[ajdude]

yessss odi watson is here

 

[MW1304]

...No because the one on the bat was where the ball passed it. Wasn't anywhere near the pad at that point. The marks on the pad came after, it is possible to edge it then hit the pad. All looked very weird anyway.

bat was miles from pad

 

[Burgey]

"Watto's obsessed with that stupid dab cut."

More pearls of wisdom from Burgeinho.

 

[ajdude]

you could see a streaky weak hotspot on the pad that was larger vertically than the one on the bat. like i said, it'd be a fair coincidence to hit the pad (an object which is of a greater size than the blade of the bat) and have the hotspot look identical to a ball.

doesn't matter though, he'll be out soon

 

[Spikey]

finch get out already pls

 

[Burgey]

Has anything ever been said about Rankin's action from an "open-chested, not quite sure about 15 degree" POV?

 

[uvelocity]

finch get out already pls

you neglected to explain wheres prince nasser

 

[ajdude]

what the **** is happening

 

[wpdavid]

what the **** is happening

Finn's got his decent spell out of his system, Watson's got his eye in and Aus look good for 300+ given the state of our attack in this match.

 

[Maximas]

good answer

 

[Spikey]

david warner did not work his way into the test through the od team. if anything, he was only returned to the od team because he was in the test team
