*Official* First Test at Trent Bridge

Yeah they do have umps call for where it pitches as well iirc
interesting, that was a millimeter from being the middle of the seam, but I recall a decision at Sydney earlier this year when Thirramanne got one overturned when the middle of the ball was barely outside leg

Honestly though, to produce bowling like this at the end of a boiling hot day is so so good, the ball to Hughes couldn't have been much better.
I know, it's remarkable. People have only been doing it since 1877.

Bull****!

That pitched miles outside leg stump
Looked like our did but to be fair it wasn't miles out and is close enough either way to be fair. I doubt hot spot is accurate enough to go by when the ball is only in by its seam though like holding says.

Not even close

Look where Hughes feet and the stumps are

DRS is doing massive favors to the BCCI in the last couple of days

They just showed a replay (not hawkeye) with the line of the stumps superimposed. If anything the ball was further in line than Hawkeye predicted.

Indeed, but TBF, Socials got the discussion away from what a good piece of bowling it was, and how England have really turned the screw with the ball in this session, so he'll be happy:)
