ICC third umpire bow your head in shame

Another third umpiring blunder. SC Williams from Zimbabwe given out caught on boundary on 96 when fielder clearly touched boundary rope. Given out out when it should have been six in a tight finish. Oh and and another player robbed of his 100.

The batsman had already left the ground by the time the decision was given which could have prompted the third umpire to give the decision in favor of the fielder.

Zimbabwe have been totally hard done by , by some really poor calls this WC. In the game v Pakistan atleast 5-6 big noballs were not called in their favour. This match as you say. There seems to be some sort of conspiracy v Zim. IMO they are a much better team that what the results have shown.

There was one video only which showed the rope move clearly. Sky Sports are showing lots of videos in their postmortem but not the incriminating one. The close-up slow-mo is not the one.

Sean Williamson left already. So it was ruled out.
Irrelevant. Even the commentators were convinced of the movement and there was. In which case you call the batsmen back. Imagine it was a batsman from your country dismissed like that, you would not be pleased at all. It's harsh on Zimbabwe, they deserved to win today but were robbed. They would and should have beaten Pak as well if the no balls that were bowled were called. Simply not good enough.

No way. It was the Shadow people are thinking that it moved. The shadow moved as well given an illusion. People are talking as though there was clear evidence he touched the rope. Mooney is not a Yahudi as well to lie!:giggle:

Not according to rules. You walk off the field, you are out. Can't be called back.

I wouldn't trust any player's word and no one should have to give so many edge and stand around. It isn't the shadow ffs, people aren't blind. We have full HD TVs and we can see the whole sign clearly. The P in the Pepsi is where he was and he pushed it or released it as he was moving off. It moved, I think people know what shadows are and it wasn't a shadow. Should have been not out and Zimbabwe should have won. They have now clearly been robbed in 2 games, first against Pak and now against Ireland. Unacceptable.

Between the 30 or so replays seen during the coverage and Sky's post match analysis there was one replay that gave it away and i only caught that replay once so it's highly probable many viewers missed it. Be good if someone could upload the replay.

Pretty much.
