There wasn't a clear gap, it could have been an edge and to be honest, the timing of the hot spot really does make it difficult to see what else it could have been. I don't know that the third umpire could really make any other decision without hot spot.
Pant is their key wicket in my opinion. Always plays well in Aus and scores so quickly he can punish the opposition. Once he is set too, he usually goes on with it.
Which just makes it even stranger that they left out both Jadeja and Ashwin. Jurel looked ok in the A game though.
Kohli looks like he is the same as late career Ponting now. Just holding on too long but still probably pull out a big innings here and there.
I'm not dying on any hill, I'm simply saying if they can do it, there can't be any complaints from the media or anywhere really if we do it too.
And for reference, the most like for like offer he received was what happened with Ben Hunt leaving us. We couldn't match it due to salary cap...Paps...
So basically, no one can complain if we keep our players or under of Penrith, etc. There is something very clearly going on that’s dodgy here but because Tripp is a massive figure in gambling, the NRL will just turn a blind eye.
He also has an extensive injury history, to the point he almost had to retire. Saying no to multiple years at 1 million + to re-sign for 700k for one year, this is the bit that is massively suss.
