Re: Silly question about catches
That makes no sense at all breeno.
The fielder must have complete control over the ball and his own movement. It could be argued that Popnting was not in control of his own movement when he hit the ground and even though he had control over the ball he grounded it before he had control over his body movement.
Look the rules of cricket up on google. Lords have them there for everyone to see and it is easy to find the rule in question. Ponting obviously feels he was in control of everything and Richie Benaud was one who agreed with his interperetation.
