45.4 Harbhajan Singh to Warnapura, no run, Now then now then after 45 overs we got a referral upstairs for a lbw shout that was turned down. It was on the leg and middle, straightened a touch, beat the prod and hit the pad. Appeal but turned down. Kumble asks for the review It looked like it was going down leg. Benson says NOT OUT. Kumble and Ganguly have a smile. It didn't turn enough. India have only two more unsuccessful reviews to make.
This was the first ever review.
Not referral, review.
Players better get used to this answer.
The big question is how it will effect the appeal process.
If a player appeals for an LBW, and it is turned down, and he doesn't review it, is he saying he doesn't really believe it was out?
It doesn't really look that good does it, he either thinks it's out, and worth reviewing, or he is appealing and he doesn't believe it is a wicket.
Which wouldn't be very gentlemanly, would it?www.cricketwithballs.com
