vvvslaxman Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 All the English guys who cried foul about spirit of cricket say it is a smart work lol Basically he was waiting for a few seconds until he lifts the foot to get back to original position. What are they going to say about this? Gollum and The Dark Horse 2
Norman Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 Nothing wrong with it. Even thala did a similar stumping against Bangladesh in the 2016 wt20. Really smart from Foakes.
Gollum Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 So all the Poms who lambasted Ashwin are calling this clever, cheeky, smart? Really? And now their ass lickers on ICF will say Ashwin was wrong, Foakes is right, Ashwin is Satan, Foakes is purer than Ma Ganga. G@ndugiri ki bhi hadd hoti hai. The Dark Horse, Switchblade and Real McCoy 2 1

In the old british empire, "cunning" is a virtue for them but cunning is evil when committed by non-Anglo folk. That tells you a lot about their mindset. Old habits die hard
The Dark Horse Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 For all those criticising Ashwin and hailing Foakes.. Real McCoy 1
Sonix768 Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 Im in full support of this and Ashwin dismissals. Im interested in hearing the opinion of the Englishmen on this, who cried Butler didnt have intention of stealing a run there.
vvvslaxman Posted May 4, 2019 Author Posted May 4, 2019 A technical question. How long the batsman has to be in that position before the ball becomes dead? lol Or is the keeper allowed to wait for eternity before he takes his feet off beetle 1
beetle Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 As bad as ashwin. Dhoni has done the same. Once the wktkeeper has the ball in hand and the batsman is in ..the ball should be considered dead. It should be called foaking or dhoning.

Nothing wrong with this , ball was still live , he had foot planted and chose to move it knowing wicketkeeper had ball in his hand . No difference to say cover point throwing in to stumps and hoping batsman jumps when it hits the wicket . It's batsman job to keep something grounded .
vvvslaxman Posted May 4, 2019 Author Posted May 4, 2019 When batsman goes for sweep and misses the ball, and when he wants to get up there is a good chance he will lift his foot momentarily. Basically lifting the foot will not be for a run. It will be to get back and get ready to face the next ball. Here is where my question comes in. How long he is allowed to wait? beetle 1

Until the ball is deemed dead , his responsibility to make sure that the ball is dead . It's not about attempting to run its if out of crease , it was a stumping not a run out .

But let us say Keeper is not throwing the ball to bowler and waiting for eternity. beetle 1

Umpires decide when a ball is dead . In this case it was still live because he was not in control of his body and deemed still in process of playing shot. The act of half falling over deemed it still alive . Every wicketkeeper in every country in internationals and first class cricket would have done this and have done it . If anybody on here thinks that Dhoni or Pant would not have done this is living in cloud cuckoo land or just an Indian fan boy .
Zero_Unit Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 I don't see what's all the bashing is about. The ball was still in play, no one told him to be a smart a$$ and lift his leg up. Fair play if you ask me. See it in realtime, literally took about 2-3 second for the event.

It was an issue because of the hypocrisy that English experts showed. Vilander 1
