Remarkable.

[Swamp Donkey]

unreal, great find!!

The poor bloke. No one deserves that! It's a bloody bowlers game, that's for sure!

Time to retire you would think

[CoverKing]

How cruel is that!!

The reporter says "if it gets lodged in a players clothing, then it can be out". Does this mean you can deliberately use your shirt to catch the ball?

Well it couldn't possibly get any worse than that could it?

[Adelaide Hawk]

I saw Michael Slater caught by Phil Tufnell at Adelaide Oval. You can't be more unlucky than that.

[NFC]

Shouldn't be out.

[CoverKing]

Shouldn't be out.

Why?

[mighty_tiger_79]

in the laws - its out

fair catch

[Adelaide Hawk]

Shouldn't be out.

It's an interesting debate isn't it? Rules prevent you from catching the ball in your cap, and yet you are allowed to catch it in your pocket. I'd actually query the legitimacy of the dismissal.

[Booney]

That really is unbelievable. If you hadn't seen it you wouldn't believe it, would you?

Poor bloke was probably thinking 4 off the bat, and out...
