I agree in that it was a classic benefit of the doubt case, and was absolutely the right decision made by the onfield umpire, there was no way he could be sure it hit him inline, therefore not out. Love that a challenge can now be made and the third umpire can now see more evidence and make his decision based on that, and the correct decision was also made by the third umpire. (love that the prediction part of Hawkeye can't be used as it's a load of sh*t and IMO gets it wrong all the time).
It balances out as in the next test Flynn may be given out middling one into his pad, and he now has the right to challenge that.
In regards to judging the line, its in the umpires opinion, same is it has ever been.
