This is the first Cricket match I've ever watched, why didn't that count as a catch? Is that a rule?

The catch isnt complete until he has the ball 100% under control and his own momentum wont take him out of the field of play

If his body could handle it he'd be a pretty reasonable number 6 bowl 10 to 15 overs an innings but he isn't a number 3.

I didn't think in these days with DRS etc we would be complaining about a borderline call, but that LBW decision against McCullum was pretty bad.

If and this is a huge impossible if he could get the ball to move into Bell he would cause some trouble because he is leaving on line out the hand. Of course this is the story of Johnsons career.

I think there would be a lot less mockery of Watson and his retarded LBW-prone, big-score-averse batting if he was in the team as a bowling allrounder/partnership breaker who could offer a quick/annoying 30-40 runs in the lower order. As it is he is a useless no. 3 and only bowls when he wants to. Also, he is a horrible oval office. Cat Terrist posted:Johnson is bowling like

It's quite interesting watching KP bat here. He has correctly identified the pitch is slow and he struggles against Siddles length at the best of times so he is letting the ball come to him. It looks very unnaturally but it's working so far.

It's a fair question though, a lot of the wickets all series have basically been Plan A for each batsman and they've almost always worked. Bowl short to Cook, he'll hook it to the man. Bottle up Pietersen and set a catching field, he'll hole out. Johnson bowling incredibly quick at inexperienced batsmen is just cake really.

The best was when Clarke put a leg slip in for prior and the very next ball Lyon put a sucker ball down the leg side and prior hit it straight to leg slip. Maybe the English are just a bit thick.

What's the exact rules for the non striker and being in his ground. Could Johnson have run in and mankaded KP I know the striker can pull away but the non striker shouldn't be out of his ground when the bowler is 3/4 of his way through his run up

Just from wikipedia, you can Mankad as long as you haven't entered your delivery stride.

I think the umpires would argue that KP wasn't attempting a run and Johnson should have waited and call deadball. Still he really should have been in his ground by the time Johnson started his delivery. The best way of handling it would be by fining kp for time wasting. Nothing huge but it was quite blatant gamesmanship. It's the strikers job to waste time.

Sammy and McClenaghan looked right on for a confrontation, all the while Holden peels off another gorgeous cover drive. And Sammy cracks another hard 4. Windies not letting this one go quietly. Edit: Holy poo poo that was a close call. Pvt. Public fucked around with this message at 08:26 on Dec 26, 2013 |

Can't believe Morkel recovered in time to play this Test. Would be interesting if he broke down in the 1st session.
