Another close finish in an England game, coming up.

I reckon they should let us through anyway, for the entertainment we provide.

think most people's would've been but there didn't seem to be any clear shot

does anyone know the actual rule? I assume the benefit has to go to the batsman if there's a doubt, would seem harsh to give them out when not 100%

Does seem like they need to consider rules for this sort of thing, as margins are so fine now that they're using cameras on everything. Agree that benefit of doubt on whether it's a wicket or not should generally go to the batsman - but there's also doubt about whether it's a six or not isn't there...? And that can't be proved either. Maybe it should be a dot ball or something.

Wtf is that - "That's worked perfectly", "Correct decision" says David Lloyd - as he gets given not out in accordance with the on field decision.

But the replay showed it was out...! So how's it worked perfectly and is the correct decision..?

Also, didn't he give him not out because he thought he'd nicked it - suspect he did. In which case the fact that it's "only clipping" the top of middle shouldn't matter.

The replay was inconclusive although most people would say he hit the rope. When you touch the rope it's a boundary and always has been. Benefit of doubt always goes to the batsmen.

 There was a great catch a year or 2 back where the fielder caught it realised he would go over the rope so threw it up returned to the field and caught it which is fine.
