4th Ashes Test - Old Trafford

[Oli Wagkz]

I know Overton can bat a bit, but Butler should be trying to face the majority of these balls. Sod the singles

It’s so so unfair that just get a replacement ball from last year that swings immediately

 

[Urraca]

People keep calling him a world class spinner but he averages 32, not much better than Moeen. He can be very good on his day, but he has a lot of games like this.

There are no world class spinners in truth, Lyon just looks good because everyone else is crap.

Pitches hold together too well now. Less joy for spinners on day four and five than there was in the 90s

It’s outrageous. It has as much of an impact as taking a ‘new’ ball

Happened first test and we lost 2 set plsyers

So what if it’s out of shape? That’s the luck of thr draw

Makes you wonder if the Aussies are doing something them, maybe one of their staff has got access to the ref's keys.

Interesting stat at Cardiff in 2009 we were 6 down after 50 overs

Unfortunately we had colly in though the perfect man
So unfair this ball change

What a ridiculous rule
Fuck off!

It’s swinging around corners

Absolutely laughable

 

[BIG BAZ]

inside edge??

Ball definitely hit bat first there Shirley

Justice - bullshit decision that!

 

[Sharpshooter]

He needs sufficient evidence to overturn this.

 

[Urraca]

Whatever happened to hot spot?

 

[Scotty 1978]

Get in

 

[The Rat]

He’s clearly hit That

 

[Mr David]

How could he not see that hit the bat first

 

[BIG BAZ]

 

[Julio]

Umpires have been shocking all series

 

[T S Garp]

Third umpire was panic stricken. Lucky for him it was outside the line

 

[The Rat]

Lucky third umpure

Thought it was clear the ball changed direction once it passed the bat. Use common sense ffs
