**** off Broad. As an umpire you just cant give the Jordan one out. Didnt look right on first viewing and games would be over in 2 days if you gave all those. As a selector yu cant keep selecting Broad. Needs to be dropped to come back better.
Didn't look out to me at first glance either, and that's why we're not umpires. Replay was pretty convincing, really.

To be fair that was what was needed on this pitch and at that situation. You need to chance your arm to extend your lead.
Exactly. Waste of time prodding and blocking and ending up with 10. Aggressive batting is the percentage batting on this pitch, particularly when we saw England's idea of defensive batting last night.

Yeah, unless you're say someone as good as Dravid or Steve Waugh, aggressive batting on this kind of pitch is more likely to succeed.

Not when you had Buttler at the other end and you had just hit a boundary anyway.

Buttler playing it how it should be done, only hit out with the tail but play sensibly while with people who can bat.
