Message: [QUOTE="The True King, post: 3464930, member: 9651"] The catch is interesting, on one hand I'm okay with it being not out (strictly based on the rule) but the other hand it looked 100% a genuine catch. Had that been an English slip taking it against us, I'd have been crying not out but it just feels wrong when it goes against your team. It's also denied an absolute beauty of a catch. Similar to other sports with slow-mo replays, something feels very artificial about the slowing down of the replay as it takes away from what your eyes tell you in real time. I'm very much at odds with it because I don't think that's the way the rules were intended to be or how the game should be officiated but at the same time understand without it cricket would be almost impossible to adjudicate (things like minor edges/run-outs etc). Maybe the rule isn't quite right but I really don't know what the fix is. The one thing I do like is that the soft signal basically means nothing, more sports need to adopt that line of thinking.
