Bangladesh Wicketkeeper blatantly cheating?

[The_Rat]

This miss stumping can't be called anything but pure cheating, right?


It happened about 30 minutes ago against India. Batsman is Saha and Kohli is 190no down the other end.


Thoughts?

I don't get it, where did he cheat ?

He missed the stumps first time around and then tried to hit em again but didn't manage to do it in time ?

I'm no cricket expert but why is that cheating ? Isn't it just a case of him being rubbish ?

Just terrible keeping i thought ?

Disagree. Maybe that clip didn't do it justice. But after he misses the first time, he actually hesitated a second AND third time, before removing them.

His natural instincts as a keeper would not allow that to happen unless he wanted that to happen.

Watched it a few times and not seeing that tbh, certainly not to the point where I'd call him a cheat based off it.

Given the thread title I fully expected Slippy G had changed his nationality and taken up cricket.

Supposed to hit the stumps with the ball aren't you? Can't even see if the ball is in his hands there, so not out.

Unless they've started messing with the rules like they did when I went off rugby.

Fair enough.

I personally see it as a professional keeper who would ordinarily make that stumping 99 times out of 100. Add to the fact that I strongly believe there to be corruption in practically every sport were one can lay a bet. Which leads to my probably biased opinion that he cheated.


In other news. Kohli showing again with another double century why he is the current best around imo. Tho he did get out for 204, but would've been saved if he reviewed the lbw decision.

I need expert help. @Elong.

In my opinion you don't miss the bails like that, you put your hands through it.

 

[cronullasharks]

India will probably win by an innings and 900 runs anyway

No idea what you are seeing other than Mushfiqur Rahim doing what he does best, being useless with the gloves.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Ah, I see, you're saying he's not cheating by trying to get the guy out, but cheating by deliberately not getting him out.

 

[Minimeister]

Done that many times as a wicketkeeper. Your instinct is to swipe the bails off but you can misjudge it and look a plum.

 

[Elong]

He's one of the best keepers in the world, it looks a little iffy to me.

He isn't. He is rubbish with the gloves. Makes Bairstow and Buttler look like Knott and Taylor.

Looked like a mistake to me although the few times I have watched this girls game I seem to remember the wicket keeper putting both hands right through the stumps, a bit suspect but not enough evidence to hang, draw and quarter him I think.
