The Ashes

Trash. 143/7 in Adelaide? fucking hopeless. This should be all over by tomorrow.
-
Go the pink ball at night!
3 down.
Healy gutted at that last wicket
-

-
Eeeeedge ... drops in front offirst slip
-
Out!
-
Smith reviewing. Only if he hits it.
Out
Out
Out -
Oooh barely pitching outside leg... deserved to be out
-
That was a pearler by Anderson and so so close. The ball two deliveries later was a great one to that had Smith in no mans land.
-
Out again?
-
High?
-
Close
-
Umpires call.
Fuck off!
-
Smithy out. 50 for 4.
Pink ball at night doing it's thing and changing it all it up.
-
Lyon? Night watchman

So... anyone think the bullshit about not enforcing the follow on is just crap?
So VVS made mincemeat of you 20 years ago ... in India... on a road ...
... and you're rested ... on a cool evening ... with a pink ball at night ....
Dumb.
As dumb Joe Root electing to bowl.

Can someone clarify for me? Why was the first Smith LBW not an umpires call with the pitch of the ball given part of the ball was in line with leg?
Are there different rules for that because it isn't a prediction of the balls path rather a record of it's actual pitch? -

Are there different rules for that because it isn't a prediction of the balls path rather a record of it's actual pitch?I think it's the proportion of the ball that is judged to be in line with whatever.

Ha! Was just logging in to post that. Was surprised when Oz didn’t enforce the follow on under lights, and unsurprised to wake up to 53/4.
Maybe one day Oz will get over 2001...
-
The non enforcement of the follow on isn't dumb because the Aussies already have enough runs to win.
Another 50 from here makes the game safe.Best 4th innings there is 233 in 2003 pre ground development.
At this stage oz are miles in front of the test. The follow on thing ain't that relevant in my opinion
