    Have you seen it @Stockcar86? Sounds ridiculous. It's such an easy directive to follow - "you can only overturn a decision if there is clear and obvious evidence". Add that to the fact that Hotspot is far more reliable then Snicko, to the point that Snicko wasn't even used for a long time, how are decisions being overturned based on that alone?

    Basic errors like that are pretty frustrating to watch for the spectator.

    Your luck is going to run out on a pitch like that before too long so might as well have a whack. Especially if his eyes are fixed

    What a disgraceful decision that was from the third umpire.

    And here's me thinking it was Pakistan that we had to be wary of for this kind of thing.

    Not fixed, but not impeding his vision. He is having eye surgery after this match.

    Rain comes down and it's 77/2 at lunch. That's a good return overall, Rosco hitting himself into form and Raval continues to be very steady at the top of the order which is bloody promising - at 28 he's no spring chicken so appears to have a good head on his shoulders. Would be great if he can parnter Latham for the next 4 - 6 years.

    The rain has been quite heavy for a while now. I doubt they will be playing again today.

    Second one I've seen like that in two days. Philander got one yesterday, with no hotspot evidence, but one single big spike on Snicko indicating the finest of edges.

    To be fair, with Kane's it looked to me like he nicked it - and then it went onto his elbow and Snicko indicated that. Doull and Co. reckoned they could hear two noises and weren't upset at the decision. Mystifying that there was not hotspot mark though.

    To be fair, given Doull's performance in India, I'm not surprised he agreed with the umpires decision once again 🙂

    I really don't think you should be able to overturn a caught behind if there is no hot spot.

    given you can't turn over an lbw decision when half the ball is hitting the stumps...

    Good news. The sun is out in Hamilton so we should be good to start at 10:30 if the field is dry.

    that hasn't turned out to be the best news Bovidae! We need to dig in asap or we'll be giving Pakistan a great opportunity to put the hurt on.

    Just as well for DRS - CDG got given by the umpire originally - an absolute shocker.

    Perhaps CdG is the all-rounder we've been looking for, particularly as Neesham and Anderson are walking foodbills.

    Agree that Nicholls must be on his last chance.

    There is still enough in the pitch to interest the bowlers so hopefully NZ can get 250+.
