Didn't think he had nicked that on first view.

umpires call on the pitching spot for me

There isn't umpire's call on pitching is there? Either in line or not, I can remember a few that have been deemed pitching outside by about 5mm.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

I couldnt believe he didn't give it live. Great decision if he saw the nick.

 

[ajdude]

he waved it off before he got told to rock n' roll too. madness.

did it while thinking "**** you cooky, **** you broady, **** you gaffers" imo

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Hawkeye had it out.

 

[morgieb]

Wow would've been out if he didn't nick it. Good work if he heard something.

 

[Riggins]

Great decision that, be interested to hear whether he gave it not out because of the edge though.

 

[wpdavid]

Think about making them play Jimmy.

Bet he didn't. #Bitter

Yeah I think you're right. If there was though, it probably would have been.

 

[Primrose_D12]

I heard the nick on the TV broadcast but it seems like it would have been harder to hear on the field level.

Scratching my head just a little that it wasn't given to be honest. At least the right decision was made in the end of it, I guess?

 

[Son Of Coco]

I'm getting this busy kind of interference on my TV. It sounds a bit like a crowd. Sometimes there's cheering, sometimes something that sounds like clapping, occasionally a song. Would this be the English crowd in action? As I haven't heard them since mid-2013 I thought I may have been getting a bit of interference from The Voice on the other channel.

Yeah that's probably giving Erasmus too much credit.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Broad bowling really well.

 

[King Pietersen]

This is a really good opening spell from Broad

 

[GIMH]

McGrath, Old Trafford 2005

Finn, Brisbane 2010

 

[morgieb]

Will be a momentous effort if we survive Broad unscathed. Teaching us how to bowl on this wicket.

That helps though.

 

[Burgey]

Broad entering into Anderson's spirit of cricket campaign.

England just under par IMO.

 

[Riggins]

Rogers wasn't wearing that sort of lid in the Test when he got hit was he?
