DRS on LBW?

[Na]

how can the ball be hitting the wickets yet be given not out?.

[Risc]

Pitching outstide leg? Not hitting the pad in line?

[Na]

If it's hitting the wickets then it should be out.

[Voltzzy]

If its pitching outside then it wont count, DRS doesn't account for deviation aswell so it may of been bowled hitting the stumps but if it had swing or spin it would be missing

Why should pichting outside leg make any difference?

[Dutch2019]

Essentially the third umpire must ask the following questions when reviewing an LBW decision:
Is the delivery fair?
Did the ball hit the pads first?
Did the delivery pitch inside the line of leg stump?
Did the ball impact with the batsman’s pads between wicket and wicket?
Would the ball have gone on to hit the stumps?

None of that answers my question.

i think you are new to the game of cricket.
if a ball pitches outside the leg stump - then a batsman cannot be out LBW.

if you want to know the reasoning behind it - then you should google about the LBW rules.they have evolved over a long period of time to best suit the game. its a lot easier to rap a batsman on the pads if you bowl at an angle from outside his leg stump - and it also encourages a negative bowling style.to avoid that sort of cricket - this rule came in place. this rule is almost as old as cricket itself - so i have no idea how you could be unaware of this .

I have googled it no good reason is given.

A negative bowling style , that is just people opinions.

what is wrong with that?

Would Mike Gatting have been given out LBW to Shane Warne's ball of the century if it had struck him on the pads? Going by the current law, he would most certainly be given not out since the ball had pitched way outside his leg stump. But the evidence is there for all of us to see - it bowled him! http://www.espncricinfo.com/blogs/content/story/622625.html

This page has a lot of information on the reasoning https://www.reddit.com/r/Cricket/comments/2vdyev/why_does_the_lbw_rule_exclude_balls_that_pitch/

big ant dont make cricket laws. they just make a game based on cricket. they didnt make this rule. so this is not something they can "fix" .

as for what is wrong with that - it makes the game more boring to see the bowlers bowling around the wicket and trying to hit the batsman on the pads rather than try to bowl him out.

and as for shane warne's ball of the century - it was ball of the century because he bowled the batsman out.
bowling around the legs is an achievement only because of how hard it is - considering it beats the batsman's pads and hits the stumps.

there are thousands of such deliveries hitting the pads of the batsmen and the bowlers cant appeal for it. they would all be out if this rule wasnt in place.
it would definitely make cricket very boring.

If they changed the rule batsman would always have to offer a legitimate shot instead of leaving balls or throwing thier pad that would make it more exciting.

They don't have to follow icc cricket rules.
Games based on dungeons and dragons don't follow all dungeons and dragons rules.

They do need to follow ICC cricket rules as far as possible. There would be outrage if they made up their own rules. The rules for LBW are quite clear...whether you agree with them or not is largely irrelevant. I don't understand your reasoning. Its like saying that there should be no offside rule in FIFA 2019 because ther isn't one in Rocket League.

[Na]

The rules for lbw when pichting outside leg are not clear, it says the batman should not be given out if pitching outside leg but it does not give a GOOD REASON for it being so.

Fifa 19 does not give the attacking player the benefit of the doubt for offside like the real game does.
Fifa 19 also has many modes where the rules are not the same as the real game.

There would not be outrage it would be a welcomed change.
If you google it many people ask why is it not out if pichting outside leg and many articles support changing the rules.

[Dr. Dee]

It is a game (cricket, that is). It doesn't need a reason that you believe to be good. It just needs to provide a set of rules that determine how the game is to be played. There is no GOOD REASON why a ball going over the rope on the bounce is a 4 and not a 3. There is no GOOD REASON why an over is 6 balls rather than 7. The LBW rule was introduced centuries ago and has been updated over time but, and this is the important bit, the current rule does not allow LBW for balls pitching outside of leg stump...so, as that is the rule, that's how we play. If you want it changed, launch a campaign with the MCC and the ICC. I think that they will tell you that they think there is a good reason for it (it reduces negative bowling for the same reason restrictions are imposed on setting leg-side fields).
