[zMario]

All 3 - lbw b Kirtley

Must be Darrell Hair..

 

[infamous9383]

James Kirtley looks like he could have been on the England squad

 

[infamous9383]

Look at Arafat - Econ of just 2.75 - much better than that loser Kirtley who has an econ of 4.00

they are probably working good as a team one is getting the wickets and the other one is keeping the scoring down

 

[infamous9383]

9 overs gone 28/3 Lancs

 

[Rana]

All 3 - lbw b Kirtley

[Rana]

[Amir]

Did anyone see those 5 guys in the green MUSHY t-shirts.... )

Yeha and when they went on break all teh commentatrs were watching and were llike "Come on lads...can you get back in ordeR? I knwo you can!"

 

[Salman]

Stumped.... 3rd umpires shout.

 

[Salman]

3rd Umpire says NOT OUT!!!!!!! Unlucky MUSHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[pak4life]

that was out

 

[Amir]

The umpire was david constant. We all remember him, give us break we know it wasnt going to be out....

 

[Salman]

Arafat being brought back in for Mushy... Lets hope he gets a wicket or two and wraps this up...

 

[Rob H]

Cork's not giving up on this one. 87/6

 

[Salman]

Another 4 for cork...

 

[Rob H]

Cork isn't taking any prisoners. This is great batting. Crushing cut shot through the covers.

 

[Hash]

That stumping was definitely out. His foot was on the line.

What is the point of having this 3rd umpire system if you are going to bottle those line decisions? I thought the entire point of the 3rd umpire was so that these marginal decisions are given.

 

[Salman]

2 runs off the over... Mushy has 3 overs left

 

[Salman]

Arafat back in...

 

[Salman]

Arafats speed in his 6th over..
