I like the DRS system but it is definitely flawed in terms of adjudicating height on LB's.

Yep. If the ball hit's a knee from a fully-pitched bowl, how can it possibly traject 30 or more degrees up and above the wicket. Compare the batsman's knee to the stumps and you can see them at the same height. Using our 'naked eye', a transparent look through the batsman's knees clearly shows the ball would definitely hit the stumps.
 
Amazing scenes in Dehli in the test match between India and Sri Lanka, the Sri Lankan's were fielding with face masks because of pollution. They ran out of fielders because quite a few of them were feeling crook. Kohli wasn't happy and ended up declaring to resolve the farce that it was turning into.
 
Excellent knock from Marsh. He had to work hard for it. Setting us up nicely with his partnership wit Cummins.

Not too many plaudits here for Marsh.

Cummins providing terrific support, looks comfortable with the bat, he's no slouch.

They just came back from the break, perhaps looking for quick runs, Cummins out.

Plaudits here willow. Had plaudits on the India tour too. Showed a lot this year
 
I've been telling you lot for years Marsh is a good bat. His LB was going over, showed it clearly on the side-on.

Ian G won’t be happy but Marsh was the incumbent before injury.

Nice to see some common sense in the conversation on the LB. He was batting out of his crease and took a stride forward on a pitch where the ball was decking and bouncing.

Where do you get the side-on view?

Lots of disagreements: https://www.foxsports.com.au/cricket/video-shaun-marsh-and-tim-paine-survive-after-marginal-reviews/news-story/d30f3027633238b6c54484c6baa62d6e

He looked good but he's always looked good when making long innings, the issue is he's flaky and unreliable, we'll see if he's turned a corner, and his selection still does nothing for the future of the team.
 
Good, not great, knock by Marsh. The issue now for him is to show consistency.
