Australia v Pakistan

[Okinotorishima]

"aussies" cheating again. Even bomber has to admit that one.

I knew this was coming as soon as it happened. I was surprised the cricket VAR can decide a ball can hit the stumps but not sufficiently enough to dislodge a bail. Well, I think that's what saw. I really only had it on in the background.

[Bomber]

Are they still a cheat if they just look for clarification and not sure about what happened?

Depends on their nationality (according to some).

[Just Dave now]

root is more a cheat as he got away with his lol , but all cabernet aside I think they both thought they caught it so neither are real cheats not like warner and co

In that case, warner, bosnich, warne, sailor, armstrong, johnson aren't that bad either as they got caught.

if a cheat is caught out at least justice is served but overall well done Australia I didn't actually think they would win that easy

[Bomber]

Just saw what NZ did to england in their test.

It does appear that way.

I woukd say that's not cheating.

I agree

If that happened no-one would even raise the matter.

Ironic that Marnus was the culprit of Root's grounder - so maybe he set the precedence, so...…….

No, they wouldn't. Instead he decided to cheat.

Using Root's example as his template, yes.

Bravo Marnus, what a batting performance!

Just shown that the Poms cant play with the kookaburra on a flat pitch!

Why won't you call him a cheat for doing so?

[Okinotorishima]

Steve Smith was the lowest scorer in the Auustralian inning. He really needs to lift his game.

Forget the Paki's. England coming off humiliating Ashes loss . Now beaten by NZ. NZ won by an innings and 65 runs

We haven't lost an ashes for 2 years, what are you on about?

[Bomber]

What part of my answer didn't you get?

You said when you would do it, not why you wouldn't do it now.

Seems strange that you won't call out a cheat.

Correct

No stranger than you not calling Joe Root one.

[God is an Englishman]

No stranger than you not calling Joe Root one.

Not really, you know the saffer didn't catch it. The evidence is inconclusive on Root.

Check this (again):

Pretty conclusive! If you can't see it, then I suggest that Specsavers appointment is long overdue.

Correct, conclusive that his fingers are under the ball.

So will you book yourself an appointment?

[Bomber]

Ball touching grass. That's all that matters. I know you have "selective" vision, but when it's clear for all to see, you really have lost the argument. Even Root isn't "looking" in that pic

So if Marnus is a cheat, then so is Root. Simple.

Marnus is NOT a cheat, he asked for the review

You haven't won it since 2015!

Aussie's are better at this game than the poms!

Is that so? I didn't know that.

If true then I take back what I said.

But Root is still a cheat.

I don't think the fielder can ask for a review, it was the batsman and I think he did it initially because he believed the ball did not hit the bat, which was in fact correct

No he didn't. He jumped up and celebrated the catch.

Not relevant to my statement of fact.

Series wise - australia are only one ahead.
