Why isn't ngInfiniteScroll working for tables?

Question

I am trying to implement ngInfiniteScroll on my table with ng-repeat on <tbody> However, it doesn't get triggered when I reach the end of page.

<div infinite-scroll="list.getMoreItems()">
    <table md-table md-row-select>
        <thead md-head>
           <tr md-row>
                <th md-column><span>Id</span></th>
                <th md-column><span>Item</span></th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
       <tbody md-body ng-repeat="data in list.items">
           <tr md-row><td md-cell>{{data.title}}</td></tr>
           <tr md-row><td md-cell>Click here </td></tr>
       </tbody>
   </table>
</div>

My getMoreItems() does nothing more than throw an alert for now.

ngInfiniteScroll is configured correctly as it does execute getMoreItems() on page load but never after that.

The issue was with the viewport to scroll calculation. Removing overflow-y:hidden from the container that contains ng-repeat solved the problem.

<div id="holdList" infinite-scroll="list.getMoreItems()">
    <table md-table md-row-select>
        <thead md-head>
           <tr md-row>
                <th md-column><span>Id</span></th>
                <th md-column><span>Item</span></th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
       <tbody md-body ng-repeat="data in list.items">
           <tr md-row><td md-cell>{{data.title}}</td></tr>
           <tr md-row><td md-cell>Click here </td></tr>
       </tbody>
   </table>
</div>


#holdList
{
   height: 100%;
   overflow: auto;
}
