Johnson labels cricket's DRS a failure!

there were a lot of questionable calls of the DRS system

 

The thing is the BCCI opposing DRS united many people (read mostly western boards/commentators). Now that BCCI has accepted (or seems to accept the DRS) a lot of "fair" critique will start.

the still image above is much different from the actual video of the delivery. The ball stuck Mitch very close to the boot and in the image above it shows as if he was hit near the knee roll. 

The actual video shows the decision isnt bad.. More of Oz whinging than anything else.

The actual impact was on the foot and then it bounced up and hit the batsman on the pads but the tracking system took the impact as though it struck him on the pads and tracked that path and calculated it was hitting the stumps. If it took the impact as hitting the foot, it would have predicted the ball going down the leg side. Its impossible for the ball which was coming from that angle to straighten that much and hit the stumps. Hence it was a howler.

Anybody else think that Aussies seem extra protective of m marsh?

Its like he is the baby of the team. Seems to be given extra rope.

Heard Clarke commentating when marsh was batting. Very supportive

Remember how Aussies used to annihilate Saffers home and away during their peak era. Now time for payback. Absolutely loving Aussie smashing at home. 

SA still haven't beaten Aus at home.
