    My only grrr around DRS is ones like that. That is out. When it is got that much on the bail, it's out!

    Pujara was down the track, hit outside the line, the turn was pretty sharp. Would have been a big call for the ump to give it out, and I'm comfortable with that decision staying as it was.

    Yep, that looked pretty solid. I guess it allows for any margin of error in ball tracking from that far out though.

    Either way, perhaps Gill will use his bat from now on.

    And that's it, isn't it? If that's 10cm from the stumps it's out out out. If it's as far down the track as that was, there's margin of error that amplifies the further the ball has to go.

    I'd be happy to write 'benefit of the doubt goes to the batsman' into the rules, and tweak the DRS. It's there to avoid howlers; that wasn't a howler, it was a tactical review

    there's also an argument to be made that he was playing a shot.

    That is in the rules already, but the benefit doesn't go to the batsman, it goes to the umpire. Which I think is the right way to do it.

    It's getting tedious! We get it, Warne, it's not what you want.

    Warne does know his shit, but he's just critical all the fucking time.

    We get it Shane, you think you should have captained Australia...

    If I were Lyon, I'd have a bat pad on the off side to Pujara.

    Very surprised he hasn't! 🙂

    Pujara 6 runs off 52 balls! Dravid like numbers.

    I would be happy for this to be a draw. Puts more pressure on both teams to win future games for Test Champ points. Oz are already in need of a decent win % from here to close out their spot so a draw would be good for NZs chances (if I have got that right)
