The Cricket Thread (part 10) - from Feb 2025

Get up… Ffs

Merrett would get weeks for that.

Really? So Kuni is a chucker? What’s wrong with his action? Looked good just then dismissing Chandimal. Straight arm

I dunno guys, maybe put a sweeper in if you’re gonna bowl there

No one has been calling for his head for quite some time.

Not since we’ve learned he and Inglis can coexist.

That has smoothed all rough waters.

Chandimal gawn for 74, smartly stumped by Carey off Kuhnemann. The vision from stump cam showed his foot was hardly on the line. The third chump should use stump cam also for stumpings. SL 6/150.

He looks worse at SS level but I reckon he has a very suspect action. Under the current rules and interpretation it’s obviously fine but I’m very uncomfortable with the tolerance allowed

Runs flowing now. Not good.

Wow I’m shocked. You’ve raised a very interesting point, I just slowed down his bowling action and I just don’t see it. Straight arm at point of delivery and doesn’t appear to bend then straighten it. I’ll keep looking. I won’t ask what you think of Murali’s action and Bumms.

Wilson says no nick. Has to be out. Smith reviews.

Sounded like an edge.

Wilson gets one right!

Even the common potators were amazed, saying he has now gotten two right today.

The old broken clock - right twice a day

Game in limbo at this stage. Both sides waiting for the new ball to induce some fireworks.
