SA Footy

God Jake Doran is boring

Tas lead by 73 at lunch, no doubt SA will be 2/20 at stumps.

Kurtis Patterson another ton 120*

Now 4/387

Wakim 137*

McDermott 51*

Lead 136

And yes Doran maybe boring but he did his job, be nice to see some of our batsman bat for that many balls and or minutes

Exactly! Our batters need to take note of how they batted, wear the bowlers down in this heat.

Have a look at the first two dismissals of Weatherald and Lehmann, both horrific, and then McInerney last over before Lunch tries to smash a six. This should be Weatherald's last chance this innings, his form has been horrid and even admitted he would rather play Big Bash.

And 1/0 after 3 balls [emoji17]

Get around this young Wakim though.. 160 on debut!

Still younger than me

Lehman’s LBW was rough.

Watching it on the app looked like pitched on leg going on to hit middle and leg, only query was did it pitch remotely outside leg, didnt look like it in frame to frame

Bring back dalton and either bring in jake winter or kelvin Smith

Im not sure it was hitting leg. Hit him outside leg and swinging in.

I agree HK but did himself no favours with the exaggerated get the leg out the line motion after he was struck. But still missing leg for mine.

Nice to see some fight shown late in the day.

Just watched the replay.

WTF ???

Yet another absolute SHOCKER . The standard of umpiring at domestic level in regards to firing batsmen LBW has been disgustingly DEPLORABLE What the hell is going on ?? Are these clowns accountable when they stuff up?
Sorry but if theyre gonna stuff up at least be consistent and do it in favour of the batsman.
I guess that logic the batsmen get the benefit of the doubt is that they get NO 2nd chance where as at least the bowler can.
Mistakes are certainly gonna happen but F*** me i reckon every 2nd LBW i seen in BBL, ODD and Shield in recent years have been rough as guts. Well maybe 1 in every 3 or 4 but thats still way way way too many

On a different note how the hell are Weathera;d and Head still at the crease? The lack of footwork at this level is astonishing, just slaying at everything wide of off stump and more often than not luckily found the gap between the 5 guys in the slip / gully area.

Heres how I saw the LBW on the link posted by Helicopterking
Missing off stump
Missing leg Stump
Hitting middle stump
The umpire might not have given it out as the bails might have been dislodged upwards, and somehow landed back on the stumps
