now see I feel that should be umpire's call with regards to where it pitched, was probably missing but still

I'm surprised it was Dar who gave it, thought it was Tony Hill, who is currently the worst umpire in world cricket.

On Pradeep, he's quick enough but doesn't get a lot on the ball. One of those blokes who bowls worse as he loosens up from what I've seen. Another Patterson Thompson, tbh.

+1. Will be perfectly balanced.

This.

Does the lawbook state that more than half of the ball has to be pitching in line with the middle of the leg stump? I just think it's unnecessarily fastidious.

Any pitching in line with the outside of leg stump and make it umpires call.

Definitely still missing leg stump and looked like a poor call live.

yeah it was definitely missing and a bad decision by dar but it's a bit dicky that the umpire's call rule doesn't apply there

I swear that wasn't quite 2 hours of Cricket, should have gotten another over in.

BTW, reckon Greig's youngest son looks like a top bloke, really handled himself well in such a terrible situation.
