That's one of the most astonishing not out LBW decisions I've ever seen.
I honestly still can't believe it.

This is really why it bugs me that we arent using technology or even the 3 referral policy for this series. Really is a joke and test cricket simply cannot go on like this in this day and age.

Not to mention thoroughly demoralising for the bowler. Can only think Koetzen thought Bell nicked it.
Given a couple of Aussies a life earlier this morning too, though nothing as terrible as that obviously. I don't think it's because he's biased, he's just not a very good umpire.

Better call racism and threaten to go home, tbh.
Not even the worst decision I've seen this week, mind.

BARNES OUT
Loving Gower trying to justfy it. Not doing his credibility any favours.

You have to wonder seriously why he did not give that out, I can;t see how there could be any doubt. He didn;t have any doubt earlier in the day with some line-ball calls. Really poor, worst decision of a terrible series by rudi.

BARNES OUT
Are you sure? That's one of the worst I've seen in a very long time, probably since the infamous Symonds incident where he middled it to Dhoni.

Hmm not the way he looked, he seemed interested in it slightly then said, nahh.

Oh yeah, wasn't seriously suggesting he's biased.
Johnson is showing some good signs of firing up. Please?

Err its fairly obvious that he thought that there was some bat involved. There's no other way you can give that not out.

In other news Mitch starting to find some rhythm.

Rudi gave a not out during the '05 Ashes when Lee hit KP with a full toss that the batsman didn't see, and Rudi later apologised to Lee about it and said he didn't pick the ball up. It would have hit the base of middle stump. This decision was as bad as that. If there's been anything that bad in international cricket this year I'd be surprised, let alone this week.
Anyway, mostly I just feel bad for Johnson. Was a very good ball, deserved a wicket. Bowling decently as it is, should get one soon hopefully.

Which surely then would have resulted in an immediate not out, but he hesitated for a bit.

False dawn. Reverts to old form. Bowling outside leg stump of both batsmen.

I'm including the underage rep games this week that have included twelve players on the park, playing in torrential rain until I demanded that play was stopped, and a neck height beamer being swatted at midoff and the dismissal being upheld.

Any danger Watson will bowl today ?

He shook his head from the very beginning from what I saw
