Struggling to see how that is out, even with the new law. She’d completed her delivery stride and stopped, and basically tricked the batter. Thought it would be a dead ball. And isn’t there a law about a fielder tricking the batter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The umpire didn't call dead ball in time and the playing conditions agreed by both teams allowed for a dismissal like that. England can moan all they like. It's in the rules and it's out. Should make it tasty when they next play anyway. Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

gingerjon Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 The way the weather forecasts look, and the way the matches are going: Kent are definitely safe, and Yorkshire will be leapfrogged by Warwickshire and go down.

Leeds Wire Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 What an absolutely amazing finish to the county cricket season. Absolutely unbelievable drama at the end of the very last day. You can't contrive that stuff, it's proper cricket that means so much to so many people. Sport at its very best. Let's hope now that the counties vote against Strauss's bizarre plans to downgrade red ball cricket and give us a chance to develop proper cricketers to compete with the Aussies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more than Yorkshire deserved after letting so many matches drift. I make it at least four games drawn that were easier to win. And only one win all season tells its own story. Now, if the ECB would like to hit us with our points deduction and apply it to this season's table then that would be dandy. Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.
