On another note [c=BF6900][b]New Zealand wicketkeeper Tom Blundell has admitted the umpires made a crucial mistake as the second Test against England reached its thrilling conclusion. The Black Caps became just the second side in history to win a Test by one run, after England's James Anderson was caught by Blundell down the leg side off Neil Wagner. But the ball before Anderson was dismissed is under the microscope, with the umpires seemingly missing a wide call that would have levelled the scores.
Wagner bowled a bouncer to Anderson that was not only down the leg-side, but well over the batter's head, but umpires Rod Tucker and Chris Gaffaney ruled it to be a legal delivery. Law 22.1.2 says: "the ball will be considered as passing wide of the striker unless it is sufficiently within reach for him/her to be able to hit it with the bat by means of a normal cricket stroke." Anderson was visibly disappointed with the call and made it clear at the time he thought it should have been called wide. Speaking on Newstalk ZB, Blundell conceded the Black Caps enjoyed a stroke of good fortune.[/b][/c]
