This could be a really long day for England 40degrees, flat pitch and even Khawaja is making it look easy and Ton’d up

Crane a Centimetre away from an LBW.
No excuses for a leg spinner to overstep the line.
Poor Discipline the story of this Ashes for England.

I don't think that's a no-ball but bowlers shouldn't be cutting it that close. Gotta be half and half at most

Swann was correct that it probably wasn't a no-ball but he was wrong to act like it was an insanely terrible decision.

Boycott was wrong to say it wasn't a no-ball, but he was correct to say that bowler's should keep their foot behind the line. There's no excuse for not having at least half of your foot behind the line.

The real debate shouldn't be about that no-ball from Crane but why there isn't an umpire in the stands who watches the line every ball so bowlers know if they're overstepping on deliveries prior to wickets and reviews.

Im more on about his outright refusal to entertain the fact that he may not be right 100% of the time and that other people are allowed to have opinions.

The way he kept shouting “NO NO NO” and laughing when Ricky Ponting was trying to talk (during the 3rd test) was absolutely disgraceful and classless. You could see Ponting holding back a lot of anger at how rude he was being.

( and the discussion with Michael Hussey about Steve Smith last night where he let Hussey talk a grand total of about 3 times. He didn’t consider that maybe we might want to hear Hussey’s opinion, considering it’s his home country and he knows a lot more about Smith.)

Yeah, he does form an opinion (Which is a good point more often than not) and then flogs it to death even though everybody has heard him say the same thing half a dozen times already.

In what world is that NOT a no ball?? 

Did he land any part of his foot behind the line? NO!!

Another wonky line marking?

No ball. Not out. Move on.

It doesn't have to land behind the line to be a legal delivery, there just needs to be part of the foot behind the line whether it's on the ground or in the air. There was a tiny part of the back of Crane's shoe behind the line, ergo it's a legitimate delivery.

Land not ground. Im familiar with law. The three consecutive frames support a no-ball, though really the first two are adequate.
