Crashing into middle stump. What game is Dar watching FFS?

I was fuming at his decision yesterday to give Woakes (I think) out.
Yeah he was proved right as ultra edge showed a gnat whisker of a touch on his glove, but the fact is he guessed....AGAIN.
I don't mind the Aussies reviewing and getting it out, but his decision should have been not out as no human could detect that contact.
 

To be fair, we've beaten the edge of Smith's bat several times, the lucky bugger just hasn't made contact with any of them.
He starting to step across more and more in search of runs.

Really would like to see them go round and push it across him. If he's going to play across the line then make hum really play across, and with him so far back there's always a sly leg stump yorker.

Getting Archer bowling left handed may not be a bad idea.

We've never had an option to try that to him, or tried being unorthodox going right handed over.

Would like to see Broad try that to him, as you say, make him play it back from where it came rather than helping it on its way. Pack the legside and bowl it on middle and leg.

Trying anything is better than nothing!
 
Miles outside, poor decision.

Just looked up from work to see wade reviewing, first replay told the story didn't even need the ball tracking.
