Wade did get a century as well and hopefully Warner will find some form. If Harris comes in he might help steady things at the top and Labuschagne has been in a good form in County Cricket. It is not good news but it is not all bad news either.
Sorry, Wade only got it after Smith had done all the ground work, Bancroft also had good county form and look what he's done and I give a two percent chance of Warner playing a good innings at Headingley.

Is Paine just bad at judging line or
You could tell he wasn't super convinced. In that case standing back doesn't really help. I would never review an LBW decision for someone going over the wicket simply because the margin for error is so bad, regardless.

Difference is that one was given and we had to review.
Yeah, but that's why that one was worth a review.

I think my strategy would probably mean you miss a review from time to time if you're fielding first, but as things stand you have to be very careful with possible LBW's.

I think they need to be given less time to decide whether to review. The good reviews usually come very quickly, the bad reviews quite often take longer.

Don't really get this concussion sub thing. Seems a bit arbitrary, why is a head injury treated differently to say, if he was ruled out with a broken arm?

Sad to hear though, if he can't play at Headingley it'll be a great shame. This could turn into one of those great contests.

I think the logic is "playing through it". I suppose you could make an injury worse regardless but brain injuries have potentially serious ramifications yet at the same time see players more likely to go through it.
