If the TV replay showed 3/4 of the ball hitting the stump then the software must have also shown that to third umpire.
the software is programmed to the agreed tolerances , if the software says "umpires call" do you really think the 3rd umpire is going to say "ah well I thought it was only 48% of the ball that was hitting not 51% so i'll over-rule
the 3rd umpire just goes with whatever the software says
The software doesn't make any decisions, it simply provides data. If it made decisions automatically there would be no need for the third umpire.
on lbw decisions there isn't
if the software says umpires call then that's the decision
as I said in my previous post do you seriously think that a person can tell the difference between 48% of the ball hitting the stumps to 51% ?
the agreed tolerances are pre-programmed into the software and the graphic we see is the same as the 3rd umpire does
