Speed Gun

[khalek]

Such a big tournament and there is no speed gun? The speed is shown but after every 3-4 deliveries. What the hell is wrong?

I guess there are some problems with score bar. It update very late.

Yeah its a joke they've got the fancy graphics and everything, but no speed gun. That scoreboard thing is huge and tells you pointless crap but when it comes to something you actually do want to know they dont show it.

And when the speed does show up it doesn't seem to be right half the time. Bennett was 120s and then suddenly 140s and it looked exactly the same speed

 

[ferg512]

Yeah I was just about to mention that, it looked like his quickest ball and it was 120s.

Actually in the last match it was Virat Kohli on strike for about 2-3 balls but on scorebar it was written as "STRIKER: Virender Sehwag"

One can only hope they fix it up when the big matches come around.

Even minor tourny's or a tourny between associates have it, than why not a big event like WC have?

Every match is a big one in WC IMO

 

[Zaxotes]

the present score bar is really informative...

This is just so disappointing. You have spent so much on this world cup but you can't have a speed gun. This is 2011 cricket world cup not 1975, it's considered the biggest event in the game and it should have all the technologies perfect.

They better fix it ASAP otherwise it's gonna be really annoying for the fans.

It also said one of the Canadian spin bowlers speed was 67 mph(107kph), when the delivery was clearly around 50mph.

 

[Insomniac]

None of that beat's Zaheer Khan's 103 mph delivery.

-_-

I was very irritated with no star or any other appropriate sign being next to batsmen on strike since the warmups. I tweeted @espncricinfo, @cwcscores and @cricketicc about it and it a star was then added. Thank me guys.

Tbh, I'm not at all bothered with the speeds and such stuff.

Actually I am.So even tell em to put up efficient speed guns which measures correct speeds and shows up just after the delivery is bowled.And also tell em to remove P1, P2 and P3, when powerplay is not actually enforced.

 

[AbhishekS]

Come on dude, they are not gonna listen to me. The complaint regarding the star next to the name of the batsman on strike would've come up from many guys and I was just one of them.

P1, P2 and P3, when powerplay is not actually enforced.

That actually is very useful. It says that how many powerplays are used and helps in analyzing the final score, I personally like that feature.
