I think everyone knows he's touched it but it obviously can't be given. If only hotspot was trained on that area of the pitch lol.

Get that man some demerit points

This reminds me of the WI charging the umpire when unhappy with the decision.

What's happening in here me dudes

NZ chose to bowl and were now on the new ball.

Taylor looks a bit out of sorts. Hopefully an opthamologist will take a look during the break.

I wasn't convinced by his reaction. My best lip-reading suggested he said 'I think I might have..." straight afterwards, and he hardly looked ecstatic or that confident given it was KW's wicket. I suspect he may have felt the air brush it was that close.

Ah ok, I didn't catch that part. All I saw was how upset he was with the decision.

Latham and his soft dismissals. Was an important innings though. Must be a great contest, these two versus Anderson under lights.

I called in and quit.

Coincidentally (maybe) the ECB just posted this.

All I have to say is 'heh'.

 

[Moss]

Bah, nicking off would be understandable but gifting wickets away given the conditions is criminal.

 

[Daemon]

Surprised how quickly they checked the no ball

That really needed the zoomed in view ... I didn't see any part of the foot behind the line?

 

[Starfighter]

Just watched some short highlights. A textbook example of the ball doing just enough (Bairstow's dismissal was pretty dire though).

If the precedent set in the Zim vs WI match the other day is anything to go by, about a centimetre over is 'fine'.

 

[Zinzan]

About 20 overs left today, I'd take 50 runs for 2 wickets to be 188-5. Then a good chance to add another 100 tomorrow in the natural light.

 

[Stefan9]

Hahahaha all the jokes about 60AO will stop after today, thank you to our Kiwi brothers

Why 60 when 47 is so much better..

Just rewound and got up really close to my tv, and yep, it was behind.
