Ok I kind of agree that umpire can make blunders and that is why DRS is there..bla bla. But how come Rohit Sharma was given out on No Ball by 3rd umpire is beyond me. Must admit some of the most pathetic umpiring I have seen on a long time.

I have seen it multiple times. Both Rahane and Rohit's calls were close but I felt there was no conclusive evidence to rule those as no balls. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Define the no ball rule for me?

Some part of the front foot must be behind the line when it lands. It can be in the air or it can slide later.

I think it should be grounded, not in the air, otherwise, batsman also shouldn't be runout when his bat is in the air, not grounded.

5. Fair delivery - the feet For a delivery to be fair in respect of the feet, in the delivery stride, (a) the bowler’s back foot must land within and not touching the return crease appertaining to his stated mode of delivery. (b) the bowler’s front foot must land with some part of the foot, whether grounded or raised (i) on the same side of the imaginary line joining the two middle stumps as the return crease described in (a) above and (ii) behind the popping crease. If the bowler’s end umpire is not satisfied that all of these three conditions have been met, he shall call and signal No ball.

That was over a decade ago... He has been much better over the last 5-6 years... Watch this one from Ashes: BtqfVkeLTQU

[cameron_black]

hopefully dharmasena gives some shocking decisions against india. meanwhile SL will reap all the benefits of DRS across the tasman sea.

MCC laws are guidance and prescription. ICC laws do not necessarily follow the MCC rules.

Both were close, but they were legal deliveries. Some part of MJ's foot was just behind the line in the air and that is a legal delivery.

Kettle and adharma are much better option than Erasmus and Gould. Gould was a good umpire but in the last 1 year or so has declined quite a lot

May be..but in this case Cricinfo shows same law & there is a link for Canterbury cricket with same details. http://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ABOUT_CRICKET/LAWS/1980_CODE/LAW_24_NO_BALL.html http://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB4QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.southcanterburycricket.co.nz%2Fdocs%2FLaw24.5-%2520No-ballFoot-faults.pdf&ei=Md-aVMD-C4SWuASU6oHQBw&usg=AFQjCNE56DQQmhz5Y1b6z4p_98Z7J2emCQ&sig2=8achUmLxw43zyJlKgVTCWQ

The Cricinfo link is also the MCC law, not the ICC plus it is an old one. MCC has a new one too.

According to ICC Law 24.2, "24.2 Fair Delivery - the feet Law 24.5 (of the MCC rules and regulations) shall apply, subject to the final paragraph being replaced by the following: If the bowler’s end umpire is satisfied that any of these three conditions have not been met, he shall call and signal No ball." According to MCC Law 24.5, which has been posted above For a delivery to be fair in respect of the feet, in the delivery stride, (a) the bowler’s back foot must land within and not touching the return crease appertaining to his stated mode of delivery. (b) the bowler’s front foot must land with some part of the foot, whether grounded or raised (i) on the same side of the imaginary line joining the two middle stumps as the return crease described in (a) above and (ii) behind the popping crease. If the bowler’s end umpire is not satisfied that all of these three conditions have been met, he shall call and signal No ball.

[Cricketics]

Watching NZ vs SL test and just now there was an appeal for a catch but it looked as if the ball bumped. Umpire does not wait for the players to ask for UDRS , but instead just himself goes to Third Umpire to check the decision. Wish this is used more often by umpires. It is is common sense infact. Good on umpires for doing it instead of waiting for bbj players to ask for it becuase there will be times teams have ran out of their alotted reviews.

[moniker]

This has been happening for some time now and is as per the ICC third umpire regulations. On field umpires can refer clean catches or bump balls to the third umpire if they aren't sure, similar to run outs.

[AmreekanDesi]

DRS wasnt ever meant for instances such as these.. its meant for lbw's, edges etc. for bump catches, run outs etc. 3rd umpire was always there (in last 20 yrs anyway) so makes sense.

[Number]

Just used now for Dhoni's catch.
