fineleg Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I would rather have Tendulkar get all the bad decisions in this meaningless game. Hopefully for the testmatches we will get fair and competent umpiring. Ok now that I said fair and competent somebody please wake me up :D wake up and smell the coffee Link to comment

Donny Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Predictable responses from the resident clowns after the OP. Tics, in general I respect your opinions but Reiffel or the no ball had nothing to do with Sach being beaten by a good inswinger from Wise. Link to comment

It quite possibly did. Batsmen like Tendulkar pick up the length of the delivery at least partially from the position of the delivery arm and if the delivery arm is six inches further down from the maximum limit in Tendulkar's mind he would expect a delivery to be shorter than it actually turns out, and also the minor difference in pace. It was a good delivery, not the best of strokes by Tendulkar, but the scorebook has it wrong. Anyhow, hoping that the umpiring will be better in the test matches though with the foolish elite panel we have, hopes are slim. Link to comment

The Outsider Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 what if the bowler decided to bowl an inch or two behind the crease? Would Sachin be deceived by that? It's not Tendulkar in particular we are talking about, but yeah most international batsmen would be deceived by it, not by one or two inches, but let's say half a foot and some bowlers do that occasionally. The flip side is that it gives the batsman more time to adjust, so it won't be as effective. As I said earlier in some other thread, its a game of milliseconds and millimeters. Link to comment

There are lots and lots of loop-holes in the argument and i think Shwetabh himself realizes that. Link to comment

In what argument- that a batsman partially judges the length of a delivery from the release point of the bowler's arm? Link to comment
Ram Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 In what argument- that a batsman partially judges the length of a delivery from the release point of the bowler's arm? Nope. I should have actually said - the relevance of that particular argument in this case. Pardon me for not being specific. Link to comment
The Outsider Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Nope. I should have actually said - the relevance of that particular argument in this case. Pardon me for not being specific. So we agree that a batsman does judge the length of a delivery partially from the release point of the bowler's arm, which implies any uncertainty in the release point of the ball is going to lead to an uncertainty in judging the length. Seems pretty axiomatic to me. Link to comment
Ram Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 ^ Again, I repeat. How a batsman judges or not judges the ball coming from a bowler's hand has got very little relevance to this thread, which is basically about a poor umpiring decision. Link to comment
