England In India - October 2011/12

[aditya123]

Sorry Sir. There is nothing unsportsmanlike here. The umpires did not call it dead. The batsman cannot assume its out because the umpire is there for a reason.

whoa

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Ooh I hope that's given out. If this series was missing something, it was a controversy. And I can't wait to see the flame wars this would spark...

 

[Themer]

Yes it was. Disgusting. Praveen thought it was and intimated as such.

 

[Ollie_H]

This will be awful if India appeal this in my opinion. Very unsportsmanlike.

Tbf, not like England can complain. They've done the same sort of thing before.

 

[Themer]

They've done the same sort of thing before.

And were hounded like wolves for it. Remember the ████ storm over the Elliot one?

 

[teamindia]

What is the commentator saying about spirit of the game. How can you walk when the ball is not yet dead. Stupid .

 

[Haarithan]

Well that is just insane! Can't blame India one bit tbh, but on the whole - its just INSANE!

 

[blazerix]

Damn it, my tv isn't working. Is this similar to the Sangakkara-Murali incident with New Zealand?

 

[angryangy]

batsmen are much too informal with regards to the ball being in play though. that's why this is an eternal controversy.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Out, hahahahaha.
Bell looks horrified.

So at tea, England essentially 187/4 and in charge. India need wickets.

Sharma to Morgan, 3 runs, OUT, 132.7 kph, oh dear, what's going on here? Morgan flicked it to deep square, where Praveen made a comical attempt at saving the ball, it looked funny but he actually did cut it off. The fielder thought it was four but it wasn't, the England batsmen thought it was four and by the time the throw came back in the batsmen were out their crease thinking it was tea. Off came the bails and now India are appealing for a run out! It could be out, should be even? That's pretty careless of the batsmen but had the umpires called tea? This Test has had everything, what can the umpires do here? OUT and it's Bell that has gone too. Should India have appealed there? It's a little bit like when New Zealand ran out Murali after Sangakkara made a century.

It was unsportsman like. Completely against the spirit of the game in my opinion.
