'Very very embarrassing! Absolutely shocking'

The first obstructing the field in BBL history #BBL07 pic.twitter.com/uG1o1AlbWp— KFC Big Bash League (@BBL) January 10, 2018 And it is very very embarrassing!! Absolutely shocking!!— Ryan Harris (@r_harris413) January 10, 2018 Common sense Maxi!! Horrible for the game!!— Ryan Harris (@r_harris413) January 10, 2018 Exactly, no common sense anymore! More I see it the more ridiculous it is! #shocking— Ryan Harris (@r_harris413) January 10, 2018 Not out https://t.co/uSK5mLT1gF— Jason Gillespie (@dizzy259) January 10, 2018 Out... well just look where he finished. That tells me everything . https://t.co/VggaSlAqlc— Dean Jones (@ProfDeano) January 10, 2018 If he ran straight ... as the law now asks the batsman to do so... then he would have been not out. https://t.co/0u4KBfDk5u— Dean Jones (@ProfDeano) January 10, 2018 Ok, what I would like to see is a change of the Obstructing Law, would the ball have hit the stumps or would have the keeper have enough time to run him out?On this occasion tonight.. The ball would have missed the stumps & the keeper had not enough time to run him out. Not out— Dean Jones (@ProfDeano) January 10, 2018 Seriously! The bloke is trying to protect himself and get out the way of it, if the ball hadn't have hit him he would have made his ground! The ball hitting him has no direct effect on the game— Andrew Tye (@aj191) January 10, 2018 My personal feel is not out, he wasn't wilfully trying to obstruct the field, rather trying to prevent from getting hit. But at the end of the day the umpires understand the rules a lot better than most and we wouldn't have a game without them.— Andrew Tye (@aj191) January 10, 2018 Brisbane Heat captain Brendon McCullum said Hobart Hurricanes captain George Bailey "missed an opportunity" to uphold the spirit of the game.And this is what Ross has to say the next day.You must always respect the umpires decision, but I wanted to clear the air and state my intentions in the run last night. I can unequivocally say I was trying to run away from the line of the ball to avoid being hit, as I felt I was going to make my ground.— Alex Ross (@ARoss49) January 11, 2018
