CONTROVERSIAL DECISION! Would YOU give ME out?! 

It’s hard to say… usually bowling unit will appeal hard if it’s close enough. Sometimes that luck has to turn on our batting side to continue scoring big. I was in a situation where I was convinced that I was out LBW, but very low key appeal didn’t help the opposition

Really didn’t like the celebration on your wicket. Very poor from the opposition.

Umpire was guessing. Unless you’re sure, benefit of doubt with the batsman imo

Well, I am not sure because there were two sounds but I think that might be the sound of the wicketkeeper's gloves or the bat hitting your pads 🤔🤔

haha did you put one through that blokes missus or something? He was a little over excited to get you out in park cricket.

I miss the old can you cricket that uploaded all his games

Send off on a Sunday is a bit harsh

It’s a competitive game at the end of the day, think we’ve all had built up frustration against an opponent before, then a release from frustration comes out. Whether it being a childish chirp or a silly send off at the end of the day, cricket has its ups and downs, decisions can be wrong in all areas. The exposure to club cricket from Can You Cricket I think is very good, it gives insight into a multitude of things within club cricket. Cricket is the winner!

With the GoPro the audio from that acts as a type of stump mic and is clear to me that was a thuddy sound so a slight clip of the pad on the way through is the more likely result - the fielding unit are always going to go up on any sound especially early in the piece and the ump got it wrong sadly We're only human and we do make mistakes though - just rotten luck end of the day

Unlucky. Reminds me of how I got out LBW when it hit me in the box. Keep your head up and looking forward to a good score next week.

The wind do be blowing 😂😂

You should have reviewed it😂

please can u show how u have used the go pro strap on your helmet please

You did not hit that, i had one like this earlier in the Australian season where i was facing an leg spinner, he bowled a wrong un outside off stump and it turned back but i didn’t hit it my bat made contact with the clip on my pad making a woody sound. The umpire took like 10 seconds to actually put the finger up like your situation here, it shows that there is doubt you could see him looking around. It is pretty annoying but we do have to respect their decision

I am sorry to see you get out like that. I was hit just below my bellybutton and was given an LBW. Next week is a new game so goodluck!

like i didnt hear any sound.But if i was the umpire i wont give the out😌And by the way merry christmas and a hppy new year

Not out. Paddy noise so I can see how he gave it out but ultimately 9/10 umpires aren’t giving that out. That was just luck

Sad loss but love your channel ❤❤❤

That was a mile away from the bat! I guess the bowling team just got the benefit of doubt for that one. I wouldn't give that out.

Hey Gareth, I’m a casual cricketer who’s a Wk Batter and I’m quite interested in your exploits and wanted to try my hands in recording our matches we have every weekend. Just need you r help figuring out the best kind of equipment and software you use for recording and editing. Plz help with both the helmet cam and outfield camera specs. Much appreciated man.

I’m not really familiar with how test works. Do you always play 40 overs? I thought it was 50?

Well said Garth!!

Was really hoping Harry got the Century, atleast he was not out! Hopefully you can bounce back next match!

Yeah its a shocker all round. The sound from the helmet camera sounds like bat on pad to me, the other angle looks nowhere near the ball. And what on earth is the umpire looking to square leg for on an off-side edge appeal. Then the celebration was way over the top. Well done keeping your calm... while in the middle at least!!

Love how the umpire had to look alround brfore giving you out! I think you the pad but better luck next week.

In which country you playing??

It was not out man How did he gave you out. Poor decision from umpire. If DRS was there it would have help you to get not out.I think it hit pad that was the Sound it produced first

Hey I had a very similar dismissal recently exact same

Level one for keeper, tend to think most umpires know straightaway if nicked behind, he took too long deciding therefore he had doubt.

One thing is for sure, the umpire also did not hear a nick. His delayed 'finger' was a result of the strength of the appeal

He tells us all in the changing rooms that he calls you krolik, which is polish for rabbit.

listening to the Audio there is 100% a noise, not saying you hit it but its an understandable decision

When slowed down there was a clear gap between bat and ball, but in real speed it sounded like it hit something on the way through and I think the umps went off that, but it looks like the sound was the bat hitting the pad. I don't umpire but I know why they appealed and I don't blame them for asking the question. Umpire should've done better but it's club cricket and these things happen. At least it wasn't a dodgy LBW shout.

what grade is this in Australian its looks like C to b grade

❤❤😊Its my big dream to play cricket like in this ground 😢😢😢

Love your videos

Honestly the sound of the bat striking the ground was probably mistaken for the sound of bat on ball...unfair and very unsporting celebration.

When was this game

They were some absolute pies at the start

The guy bowling at 3:00 is clearly chucking

Hey Gareth just wondering what grade u play

If you didn't feel it you didn't edge it

one of players from owmby here well played woodhall and especially harry

If the umpire was confident you were out, why did he look to square leg first? He doesn’t need anything from square leg if he’s sure you’re out.

I am from india and soon relocated in coventry ,united kingdom...so can i join cricket club ?

Looks like some nice weather up there for this time of year mate. Plus I don't think you were out, I played it back slow a bunch of times and cant hear anything on the bat but its really hard to tell.

i slowed it down it barely edged the bat

Nah not for me Gareth, reckon your bat hits your pad, you’ve been done by the appeal there at 5:09 clear day light between bat and ball

Sounded wooden to me, I certainly would have gone up for it.

Think the ball hit the grill of the umpire so it is a dead ball and not out

Great knock Harry!

Sounded more like bat on pad, it was not a sharp woody sound. Hard done by.

Its difficult but look like not out and aslo look likes out so nothing in my opinion it is out

Gareth if u come to South Africa again come and play Primrose cricket club

I wouldnt give you. I think you were out because of the appeal so the umpire thought you must of got something on it but it didnt look like you got anything. Also well done with staying calm even with that send off you received.

Nowhere near it Gareth

aweeeeee

What country is this in cuz it can’t be England judging by the weather

No it came of the pad

I LOVE YOU CAN YOU CRICKET !!!

for me personally i dont think you hit it but i mean its hard to say from the umps side not much we can do when it happens.

From the side cam it looks very obvious you didn’t edge it. Unlucky decision

That was definitely not out

Sorry man but that was hard to say even with a go pro on. Noise was soft as in something on pad than a crisp sound of a bat edge. From the range the umpire was away and limited sound that was given out that was a harsh call. As a bowler you are always out and a batsman you never hit it. Chalk it up to a bad day and wait for one that you get away with.

why all the uncles are playing

Iwish there was DRS here

That looked a bit dodgy. Fifty fifty at best

@canyoucricket I think the strong appeal was part of the decision but also you followed the ball as it went to the keeper in this case most likely out of confusion but usually it's a subconconcious action by someone who's edged it. On second review on the intial action the umpire is completely unreactive and then he looks to his right at those appealing just before the cut. That's hard luck but i guarantee the umpire will feel worse giving you out if he saw this footage. Cream the opposition for us next time you play please 🙏

Why was the batting so poor today. A lot looked like they’ve never played cricket before

Best video ever

yay

Where’s your other bowlers these look weak ?

Sounds like you hit your pad?

Tf you’ve lit never touched that I’d appeal to the umpire association that abysmal

3rd

What an horrible opposition! The way they celebrated the wicket especially! Also, the last over, just give him his century ffs! The game was won and the lad was going for his maiden 100! Don’t like teams like this!

I don’t play cricket but I enjoy watching your channel. Why don’t you talk to the umpire and appeal you side. Like I would be absolutely raging and giving it to that umpire. Why don’t you talk to him if your not happy with your decision.

It was controversial!

Low class celebration. Still don’t know what you were out for 😂 looked like you missed the ball by a mile on phone 🤷

It's not out 🤷‍♂️

You should not have been out there, it didn’t even really look like an edge

Bat on pad

That is not out

what a bellend the kid with the cap celebrating your wicket, way over the top

I have grown to dislike many teams wicket celebrations these days. Very in your face / passive aggressive. Be happy you got a wicket, of course, but it seems almost rude now.
