Each to their own but I think it's ideal. Ball tracking is not always 100 pc (see Stokes in the Ashes miracle innings where Hawkeye missed a flick off the front pad), so I like the fact the Umps still have a semblance of a final say when it's tight.

Would take away the excitement of a big appeal too, instead of the team yearning for that decision, it would be a nonchalant, "tech check please".

Always annoyed me that when Hawkeye had it crashing into middle stump on the back pad, despite the fact it was spearing down leg and hit his front pad first.
I remember Stokes being bemused about the Hawkeye when it got mentioned to him.

So England's chase is on. Although "chase" doesn't seem like the right word to use when Sibley is at the crease. It's more like stalking.


:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Prediction: we'll do this 6 wickets down.

I was going to post that too :lol:
We will have a wobble at some point, how we deal with that wobble with them chirping away will decide this for me.
