Really find that hard to believe. What match was this? And I haven't heard of a rule change, not saying it hasn't been though.

So you're saying someone hit a six, then they called it back and said 'nah he hit the stumps so it's a dead ball'?

If so that's the biggest disgrace since spikey was offered a job.

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying. Was a LHB IIRC - I want to say Birt? - but I wasn't paying a great deal of attention at the time.

When was this? Like 3 days ago? Because I didn't see that.

"Dead-ball was called off the ball that Maddinson hit for a six as Abbott flicked the bails while bowling"

That's a disgraceful decision. Maddinson is being punished for the bowler making an error.

Hope Haddin followed that umpire home and beat him with a sack of door knobs.

If they're going to make it a uniform policy like they've done then I think it has to be ruled no ball rather than dead ball.

BENCHY IT HAPPENED OKAY? IT WAS CALLED A DEaD BALL. STOP DENYING IT HAPPENED.

DEAD BALL DENIER

This is a lesson to everyone to discard everything Benchy says, don't just blindly concede.
