The 4 LBW verdicts today

Kulasekera DRS appeal against Warner...POOR APPEAL , SL HAVE NONE LEFT
Clarke DRS appeal against Kulasekara ....AMBITIOUS , BUT ALMOST MISSED THE STUMPS
Warner LBW Perera............................INSIDE EDGE , A SHOCKER
HenREBiques LBW Herath.....................INSIDE EDGE , A SHOCKER

As for that Clarke DRS appeal
Makes a little bit of sense to me
The score was 2/50 with 40 overs to go
The best batsman in the team should have a DRS
Who is to know what would happen later in the innings
No one really complained at the time, but did when Warner and HenREBiques got out , hindsight is wonderfull
Yeah Clarke did waste an appeal in my opinion
But nothing is brought up if the umps didnt make the 2 blunders later

Imagine this though
Replays show Clarke was given out, and the ball just hit the top of middle
Imagine if it goes over the stumps, and Clarke didnt DRS ....

Because the Lankans dont bat too deep, a couple of early wickets and it will be game over

Well this sucks. Seems to be a lack of evening cricket in this series.

Did you see Henriques' glass arm in the field.
Threw it to Wade and it got to him on the 3rd bounce, what a joke

Geez Jim. You see it all the time. He (all) would be under instruction to make it bounce a couple of times when throwing from the outfield.

AU 9/222
SL 0/14 [3.2]

Betfair odds
When it rained SL was odds of $2-06
Now they have shortened to $1-64
They have shortened 42 cents without a ball being bowled
Would suggest that the D/Lewis equation may be favoring SL

Absolute crap. Who cares if we lost, a match is better than a draw. There's been **** all for the consumer in this series. Another viewing let down.

Exactly. The fans have been dudded. The commentators agree that they could just about play, albeit with reduced overs. At least there'd be a result.

Heavy drizzle has left the outfield too wet. This game is becoming a joke if it hasn't already.
