• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler

The ball before Jimmy got caught should have been called a wide. Very suspicious and dodgy decision.

The rules are totally different in red ball and white ball cricket concerning a wide.

If you notice there are no "inner wide" lines in Test cricket - which you have in white ball matches.

The red ball has to move outside the pitch (the 2 parallel white lines either side of the wickets) to be called a wide.
 
Has there ever been a test match won by one run in its history I wonder? its extraordinary.

So close but yet so far, seems very apt saying for this scenario :(

There's only been 1 other match ...

West Indies beat Australia by 1 run in 1993.

Yep, get that, played the game at decent level myself for 30 years.
But that ball should have been called wide.
 
There have been two test matches tied in history, both involving Australia against WI and India.
