2 things stand out thus far...

1 - Australia's selectors have got it spot on with every selection
2 - England havent been able to seize key moments

You must have missed this comment.

"But, to your question, no real bearing on the results."

Another umpires review going Australia's way.

Really?? The Cummins wicket didn't show a picture of the ball actually making contact with the glove or bat.

No, that was an aussie standing his ground after hitting it. You know like they whibged about Broad doing.

I'm talking about the LBW that was clipping but was umpires call.

[Bodø]

I didn't see that one. It might have been when I was out on road. I still didn't see an image of the ball making contact with Cummin's glove or bat.

Plus three more

3. Australia has fielded better.
4. Australia has batted better .
5. Australia has bowled better.

[Raich Carter]

I didn't see that one. It might have been when I was out on road. I still didn't see an image of the ball making contact with Cummin's glove or bat.

What it hit was the top of the rubber grip on Cummin's bat.

Rain again. Bloody rubbish australian climate

Be thankful, your best chance of not losing a test.

Yes got him, what a very easy catch once again. GIAE can't help but get out for a duck all this series it's a wonder why he is still playing after so many losses.

That last one was the worst decision ive ever seen an umpire make.

[Bodø]

I heard that in the commentary and I am not disputing that it did or didn't. However, none of the pictures shown in the appeal process clealry show it actually did and without a clear picture I don't think you should be overtruning the umpire's initial decision. The one today where the ball hit the stump was clear as so overturning it was the correct decision.

In the back yard it was out.

At least it wasn't as bad as the overturning of Wood's decision. Vision alone shows he didnt hit it.

[Bodø]

That was after I hit the raod so didn't see it. The Kayo Sports youtube highlights didn't show it.

The highlights package didn't show a "wicket"?

[Bodø]

It showed the wicket but not from a good angle. For some reason I was looking for one that was overturned.

Interesting that something England is know for (rainfall) is the one thing that stopped them from yet another embarrassing loss. I guess 4-0 for the series will be good enough lol

None of that changes the facts. Sydney has more rain than London. In fact, the only state capital that doesn't have more is Adelaide.

what a silly statement to hang your hat on.....

the matter of rain is in relation to cricket and in particular cricketing days lost. please be feel to put forward any other superfluous trivia as long as its about cricket
