@AndyJSykes @ThomasFeaheny I love the commitment to the idea! Looks logical to me. Shame the powers that be will never go for such a pragmatic solution

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@AndyJSykes @ThomasFeaheny Oh I agree, would never happen. Yeah, that would certainly be one way of doing it. Ultimately, I just think at that level, 10 hour round trips and the associated costs is totally unreasonable for players and staff.

@cricketcomau So disrespectful. Stuart Broad used to do this and even as an Englishman, it annoyed me. There should be fines for doing this

@roryfitz15 I was not ready for this today..still too soon

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@emjher It's hilarious that whenever we describe something "american", the word "ignorant" could so often be used perfectly in its place 😂😂

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@SteveRossUmp @timbresnan Well, Steve, not sure we'll be agreeing on this any time soon! An enjoyable debate nonetheless

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@SteveRossUmp @timbresnan The review/replay system is literally based upon re-examining what happened to make sure the correct call is made. In this instance, the batter has picked up what is clearly a dead ball (hence the public backlash) and the umpires have made an incorrect call. It's that simple.

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@SteveRossUmp @timbresnan You do realise that you literally just spelled out the rationale behind a replay and review system?! Having the ability to watch this again should have led to the umpires realising the ball was dead! Their poor judgement is the only thing at fault here.

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@SteveRossUmp @timbresnan The next law (20.2) affords the umpire to make a judgement call, overruling the batting or fielding side's point of view. With the luxury of replays, the umpire could easily see the ball had fully settled and ultimately, declared it dead. This is terrible officiating, end of.

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@brettmarkh3201 @StartupManutd @StuartBroad8 Umpire should have declared it dead, as it clearly was. Officiating error.

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@SteveRossUmp @timbresnan Laws clearly state it is down to the umpire to decide when the ball is dead. In this case, the ball was clearly dead and the umpire has made an error in not declaring it as such.

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

@emjher @InternetH0F I literally mouthed these exact words after watching this

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

Wow! Some ride from Gavin Sheehan that! #Fugitif

[Alex Syed @alexsyed1]

11 years since this performance but I'm still not over it. Stunning.
