How can these video refs be such morons?

 

I've really no idea. Some of the decisions have been ridonculous.

 

Maybe a few years down the line the umpires will have been involved in a huge Chinese betting syndicate.

How did the umpire give that not out? Hitting middle two thirds up.

Maybe the umpire thought it had hit him just outside offstump or maybe because they know they have already given an appalling decision against the Aussies he wanted to balance it up.

Great innings from Clarke.

Been today, never been at a cricket match so hot, it was brutal at times. Aussies seemed to play a lot better than before and the pitch didn't do a great deal.

 

Old Trafford is still somewhat lacking IMO. The travel to / from the train station to the ground was appalling, it was as though the 20,000 plus people came as a shock to Manchester authorities.

Haven't been to Old Trafford since its been redeveloped. its always been one of my fav grounds because its so easy to get to by train and tram. Didn't they lay on extra trams?

 

Basically no

Old trafford looks ridiculous. They have ruined that lovely old pavilion they had and that huge temporary seating stand looks ridiculous.

Behind that temp stand they have a "fans village" - the lunacy today was that they put on a appearance by Gatting and Thompson at a stand that was the thinnest of walkways - resulting in gridlock with baking hot temps. They also ran out of bottled water everywhere

They never seem to put on extra trams when there is major events on, I went to the Olympic football at old trafford last year and the queue to get the tram was stupidly long and the trams took an age to arrive.
