    Sleeping through a 5 a.m. start time is more understandable. Next one is at 5:30 a.m. on Wednesday morning for me, I don't imagine I'll catch any of it.

    Boult to Mathews, OUT, Caught at second slip! It was a length ball going across Angelo, who tried to hit it hard towards the leg side and got an outside edge that flew fast towards Guptill, who took a reflex catch in front of his face

    Fair enough.
    NZ did not play well.
    Guptill played outstandingly well. The rest were average to crap.

    He was plumb in Peterson's first over and there was a sweep shot he played against Phangiso around over 10 or 11 which was even more plumb.

    Just not a convincing win at all.

    Na, the sweep was going down leg, Hawkeye confirmed it. The one in the first over should've been out though, yeah.

    Nope I'm not talking about the one they showed on hawkeye. This was one a couple of overs before that shout.

    edit: just found it on cricinfo:
    10.6 Phangiso to Guptill, no run, tossed up on leg stump, it was full and Guptill gets hit on the pads as he attempts a sweep. That was very close but the umpire doesn't show interest in that appeal. very close.

    this is the one you're talking about:
    13.5
    Phangiso to Guptill, no run, tossed up and Guptill misses his sweep, get hit on the back pad. It was very close again.

    Ah, can't remember that one, therefore I will assume it didn't happen

    Still a good innings, but I just can't bask in a win because we really played no better than we did in the first game.

    Our strategy and planning was just awful again.

    Haha, so now the coach and captain can't shake each other's hand after a win without earning the wrath of angry, sad little CWers. Great stuff.

    It isn't the ball in particular that matters, it is the bowler. The 'slow bowler' primarily refers to spinners, however the interpretation is generally along the lines of any bowler to whom the wicketkeeper would normally stand up to the stumps.

    As soon as a bowler breaches that interpretation, they are to be considered a fast bowler for the remainder of the innings, regardless of the specific pace of any individual ball.

    Really? Source? The only time I've seen that definition in terms of what makes a fast bowler is within the ECB's fast bowling directives in terms of length of spell permitted for U19 and younger... a definition that is hugely open to, er, manipulation if you have a good wicketkeeper.

    I got entrusted with writing rules for a local festival last summer:

    In addition to the Laws of Cricket, the umpire shall call and signal “no ball”, regardless of the pace of the bowler, if:
    (a) Any high full pitched ball passes (or would pass) above waist height of a striker standing upright in his crease
    (b) Any delivery bounces more than once or rolls along the ground

    It's the way forward...

    That's the same definition as the Cricket Australia fast-bowling rules. To be honest, it seems more like a common-sense interpretation than anything codified in the laws.

    And I may have manipulated it somewhat a few years back by wicketkeeping up to the stumps to all bar our opening bowlers.

    I agree with your version of the law anyway, just make it waist-high regardless of pace.

    Great win but this. Hesson is such a little gimpoid.
