England v Australia, 1st Test TRENT BRIDGE commences 10/7/13

[helicopterking]

faark off Broad you cheat ... and is the ump blind and deaf???

No he's Pakistani, they are all cheats. Worst umpire since Rudi Koertzen.

[helicopterking]

I didn't think the commentators were that bias, until they started talking about how brave Broad was and talking him up that he didn't walk.
Shoe on the other foot, wouldn't ever hear the end of it for 1000 years.

[wristwatcher]

Sack that dud. He is not competent. Disgrace. Caught at first slip FFS

Nasser Hussian called Broad courageous . What an ass clown. Well done David Gower on calling him on it. Nasser is the English James Brayshaw of commentary. David Gower is actually good at it.

I can't remember too many worse decisions ever

[dedja]

exactly ...

brave??? ... faark, it's the hallmark of a coward, and Broad is a serial offender.

Clearly the howlers still can get through ... the 3rd umpire should have the power to intervene in these cases where it's clearly a howler.

Anyway, we move on and put a big mark against Broad in the black book.

[Pup]

Disgraceful decision by The umpire seriously disgraceful.

Next over Haddin dropped another chance, his footwork has been absolutely shocking this test and again he goes one hand and doesn't move at all except diving. Book your flights Tim Paine.

Very hard for Australian supporters to take the higher ground with the walking issue after so publicly denouncing through multiple captains for many years. Poor umpiring indeed but to call Broad a cheat when Australian players have done similar is a bit rich. If Clarke hadn't wasted a referral on a fully going down leg side, wouldn't have to worry about it.

[dedja]

Don't blame Nasser ... poor bastard has been confused all his sorry life.

An Indian Muslim who played for England ... no wonder he's all faarked up.

All non-walkers are cheats in my book ... Australians included.

You reek of stinking pom.

And that's why I consider Adam Gilchrist the greatest cricketer to have played in the past 2 decades

[purch]

Okay. When does the first appeal stop and the second one begin?

[dedja]

LOL, it was a stupid appeal but FFS he's allowed to appeal ...

The umpire didn't appreciate that Patto kept appealing after he had given it not out.

[The Sleeping Giant]

Australia only have themselves to blame. Wasted a referral on on an lbw appeal that was clearly not out.

Guess again

[ORDoubleBlues]

Thought Dar had been good so far but that was a stinker and in fairness to Haddin for that delivery, it was such a huge edge that I don't think a 'keeper in the world would have gloved it.

[the joker]

Broad is a straight out cheat. When you hit the ball to the slips you just turn around and start walking

[Johno6]

Like bairstow did.

Bullshit, I don't like Broad but I'm not going to criticise him for not walking.

This, stupid referral. Cost us later. No one to blame but ourselves.

You never walk. As Bill Woodfull said after he "hit one hard" and got caught behind in the 30s. "George why didn't you give that out? I was ready to walk the you said not out and I didn't want to offend you" or words to that effect. Source "The game is not the same" by A McGuillvray.

The only time you walk is when your car breaks down.

I would have felt the same if it went to the keeper, but it went to first slip.
