SMH - Dem 8 LBWs had all gone....and now...

England's way before being overturned.


Thank God for review, this is how they robbed us unmercilessly in the past. Bet all them would've been out if we were batting.

Yep - 400 years of tiefing and more

Wavell Hinds would have been helped by DRS in 2000 when he got many atrocious decisions in England.

 
Maispwi 2020-07-09 13:23:07 

Based on de logic here it cud be said dat de WI umpire who had dat nightmare not so long ago was just making up for all de tiefing against us.

I was surprised dat ball tracking showed the ball to Burns straightening from dat angle of delivery. Most of dose balls just hold dere line and end up missing leg.

But aren't we not doing de same kinda profiling dat we accuse whites of doing to us?

Nah!

You would probably be too young to see the thieving in the Tied Test series in Australia or even the series where Michael Holding kicked down the stumps in disgust.

But then you should have certainly been able to see some really bad New Zealand umpiring in more recent years...

Is it intentional dishonesty or are they making genuine mistakes?

 
Halliwell 2020-07-09 19:23:05 

In reply to Star

It’s called bias

Exists whether conscious or otherwise

 
Star 2020-07-09 19:33:16 

In reply to Halliwell

If you know the review system is in place to overturn your decision if it is wrong, will you still intentionally give the wrong decision?

I don't think so.

 
natty_forever 2020-07-09 19:39:03 

The review system is not automatic, you have to request it and there is the "umpires call".

And it going look bias if a similar incident when we batting is given.

 
Halliwell 2020-07-09 19:53:49 

In reply to Star

You still have a game of chicken and 15 seconds to refer

 
Star 2020-07-09 20:02:23 

In reply to Halliwell
I agree with you that it comes over as being biased but the umpires can also be seen as fools if they are doing this intentionally given that at the end of every game an analysis is done on their umpiring.

 
granite 2020-07-09 20:04:09 

I like the way Campbell was playing until those 2 LBW decisions,it may have upset his confidence,he's confident and has aggression, and goes after the ball if it's there to be hit.I see him making runs in the series.He is the right man to open with Braffit.

This is the very point Steve Bucknor made to Mason a few weeks ago.

None of them like to get it wrong...

you are messing with peoples careers...and now...messing with their own.

Richard the Umpire was horrible so far...most of those failed NOT OUT LBWs were his..and even the first one yesterday...that was still hitting...but he got the break to stick with his decision of NOT out.

 
LBW375 2020-07-10 11:06:37 

And another one overturned

No ball but wouldve missed the stumps

 
Chrissy 2020-07-10 11:07:44 

Mikey Holding spoke about this at the start this morning. Atrocious umpiring.

No it wouldn't.

In reply to natty_forever

Didnt ball tracking saw it going over ?

I'm working online while watching, am sure I saw that

 
LBW375 2020-07-10 11:17:17 

My mistake, was hitting stumps
