[Burgey]

any word on watsons availability to bat?

Was on the field so can bat anywhere. Apparently wont need a runner.

I was going to crack a joke about Aus missing his usual contribution of 30 but that would be a reasonable innings on this pitch I think.

299 to win, this is going to be a really interesting chase. Where's your money?

England by at least 50.

 

[Burgey]

Trott looks like that bloke in every team who doesn't give a **** if he isn't batting.

 

[Expressway76]

Swanneh to get a Michelle once the new ball softens.

Can't have one anyway boi.

 

[Burgey]

Can't have one anyway boi.

That was kinda my point.

Jeez this looks close.

 

[benchmark00]

Nah outside leg by miles.

 

[Spark]

plumb tbh

edit: unless it's outside leg ofc

 

[91Jmay]

Umpires call for pitching i recon.

 

[hendrix]

pitched well outside leg
anyone else think Anderson's just been getting too carried away with his variety lately?

Like we know you can swing it both ways...

 

[Pothas]

Reviewing on the basis that Tony Hill gave it not out is probably a good way to go.

 

[dermo]

outside leg i reckon

 

[Spark]

this is why i'm not an umpire

 

[benchmark00]

It has to swing back and that just didn't, simple.

 

[Burgey]

Thank ****.

**** review, Cook can't use DRS etc etc

 

[Son Of Coco]

Good review that, hopefully it comes back to bite England on the arse.

 

[Expressway76]

Poor review again. We've dropped the ball on good solid reviews.

 

[Riggins]

the ball pitching outside leg makes everything else completely irrelevant and seems to be available immediately, why would you not just check that quickly first rather than 15 replays to check the edge.

 

[morgieb]

Taste it England.
