       Cricket question
       By: Muscle Date: July 11, 2019, 5:38 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       England bowler lands the ball and it hits the batters pad.
       LBW is called but umpire says no.
       England called for a review.
       Video review indicates the ball would have hit the stumps.
       The decisionis is still not overturned.
       Why is this? Is it because the ball wasn't in alignment when it
       hit the ground before hitting the stumps. If so why would that
       matter because the ball still would have hit the stumps.

       Do the video refs see the same video review footage they use on
       TV showing predicted ball path etc? Or do they just see a simple
       replay of the action to decide if it's obvious enough of a
       missed call to over-ride the field umpires decision?

       Lots of potential reasons so without seeing that particular ball
       it’s hard t call.
       - did the ball pitch (hit the ground) outside of leg stump.
       - did the ball hit the pad in line with the stumps
       - did the ball touch any bat/glove before hitting the pad.
       If everything above is fine then
       - was the bowlers front foot over the no ball line when he
       bowled
       The most crucial
       - was the ball going to just graze the stumps. Because the
       umpire has made a decision, 51% of the ball has to be hitting
       the wickets for his decision to be reversed. If less than 51%
       the the video umpire will stick with the on field decision.

       Yeah video refs see the predicted ball path. Its because the
       ball wasn't in lineament of the stumps when it hit the ground.
       Must be that. Almost certain its that. Can't see why that
       matters. What should matter is the ball ends up.

       All this new fangled technology.. it’s just not cricket!
       I really detest the video refs. In the old days when the games
       were invented(football, rugby, cricket etc).. you learnt that
       refs decision is final, you respected it and the ref. If it was
       a bad call, you lived with it. Now anyone can challenge a ref.
       I liken it to the failing of society. Kids don’t respect
       coppers, teachers, and they grow up to not respect a gentleman’s
       sport so they invent ways to get round it with technology when
       they get older!

       It might be the last one there mate. It amazes me in cricket
       there is always something new to learn. All the names for the
       positions, all the terminology involved even the  weather can
       interfere and decide the outcome of some games lol. I can
       actually watch one day international and 20/20 with a bet on.
       But for me all matches should be done in a day and have the
       music playing ect. I can't watch test cricket.
       did the ball pitch (hit the ground) outside of leg stump.
       Wouldn't that have made it a wide? It wasn't a wide. They put
       that blue line on screen. the ball wasn't hitting the stumps on
       the bonce, but direction change after the bonce.
       did the ball hit the pad in line with the stumps
       Ball did hit the pad in line with the stumps, but only after the
       bonce.
       did the ball touch any bat/glove before hitting the pad
       No bat/glove before hitting the pad
       was the bowlers front foot over the no ball line when he bowled
       Fair delivery
       Only the bottom part of the ball would have hit the wickets, so
       it might be classed as graze of the stumps. I t was high on the
       stumps from what I remember.
       None of it matter anyway from a betting point of view England
       won and I hope they win in the final against new Zealand. Thanks
       for that last suggestion though somehting else I didn't know in
       cricket lol

       The problem is that now there is a lot of money to be made in
       and around sport, we can all see it on TV for ourselves and the
       sports media can replay and breakdown every single missed call
       or wrong call from every conceivable angle. The result of which
       constantly puts the jobs of referees and umpires in to question
       and can greatly exacerbate any bad call especially if it results
       in a championship result being decided.
       When the games where invented you would never know for certain
       if a call is right or wrong other than what you thought in your
       head - and everyone's view would differ.... today we can now
       confirm the decision as good or bad within seconds.
       When the games where invented you only lost or won for pride....
       now you win for fame and money beyond most people's wildest
       dreams.
       When the games where invented officials had little to gain from
       'favourable' calls.... now corruption can make some people very
       wealthy indeed.
       Not saying it's a good or bad thing, but this is why it has
       become a thing I think

       Its essential in cricket. To many decisions would be wrong. If
       someone is runout it must go upstairs if its close. Why not get
       it right? Countless things really. I like VAR ect for crucial
       decisions in football and goal line tech. Better to have the
       correct decision for certain situations.

       Just watching the highlights. We reviewed an lbw that was just
       clipping the bails so I guess that’s the delivery you are
       talking about.
       Because it’s not a clear umpire mistake they stick with the
       umpires on field decision.
       RE the ball pitching outside leg being a wide. The ball can
       pitch wherever. The important bit is where it passes the
       batsman. As long as the bowler bowls within his marlins he can
       pitch it outside leg at an angle that then reaches the batsmen
       as a legal delivery. That totally rules out lbw though due to
       the rules.

       Could probably also add to my reasonings is that the nature of
       most games has also changed since their invention. Technological
       advancements in equipment and scientific advances in performance
       mean that games are quicker, and faster, balls etc move more and
       move differently making the calling of a game more difficult.
       I do struggle with video decisions that completely ruin the flow
       of the game. Commentators can instantly pull up 3 or 4 different
       angles confirming the call almost immediately 99% of the time,
       very few seem to require extensive assessment. VAR type
       referrals should be given something like a 30sec deadline
       otherwise the field refs decision stands regardless - the time
       it ordinarily takes to collect the ball and get ready for
       whatever the next piece of game action is.
       Sorry, going a bit OT now
