Snicko

[BillyStubbsTears]

Obviously hasn't clicked with the Aussies

[Filo]

We’ve been shit with the bat again, but yet another cheating snicko decision goes the Aussies way

[Donnywolf]

They are happy to take every break they get, as ( they would remind us ) so was Stuart Broad

Broad was given not out and Australia had used sll their reviews, there’s no comparision to these last two cheating events

They hardly need to cheat do they.

[Prez]

It was also Carey who infamously ran Bairstow out.

Proper Kitson.

Just seen the 'highlights'.  Not impressed by the way they've been mobbing the umpires.

[Draytonian III]

The worst team, sorry player I’ve ever seen do this was Viv Richards, some of his appealing was terrible and his claiming of catches, he used to slap them up in the air and not have the ball under control.

Is it really cheating? It’s technology badly administered. You could make a case that Carey should have walked but we lost the right to occupy that moral high ground a long time ago.

I hope it’s dropped for the last two tests but I hope more than that that it isn’t used as an excuse as the real reason that we’ve lost.

[i_ateallthepies]

The real reason we lost is we're just not good enough.  The batting has been a problem for a long time but now the main problem is we don't have a bowling attack anything like world class.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Again, this is not the reason we lost, but last night there was an equally appalling Snicko decision. This time the tech worked, and there was a clear noise as the ball passed the bat and was caught behind. But the TV umpire said it was not out. No explanation given.

Surely if you're going to use technology in sport, there has to be some consistency?


Australia have certainly been by far the better side, but England have had a couple of awful decisions at crucial moments.
