[First Test] England v West Indies - Southampton

[Ghfd]

Bloody hell. How can the ump fail to give dom that? That was a good hit not a glance. Thought they tightened the umpires call

How the fuck is that umpires call man.

I thought it was outside the line that it wasn't given for.

 

[Kumbuka]

Looked like loads of the ball was hitting?!

Umpires call for that is bullshit it’s hitting middle stump

 

[scotch]

2 decisions we could have had with those 3 wickets.
5 wickets taking potential deliveries and injured a batsman all for 33 runs....167 runs looks a long way away

 

[Mrjardine]

How is that not out? It’s f***ing crashing into stumps not just clipping.

 

[Ghfd]

Lunch.

hope that was not the turning point. That was a bit more than top of the bails mikey said. It looked more than 50% hit to me

That must have been 50.01% of the ball not hitting the stumps.

Margin should be bigger. As that was smahing into the stumps

I don’t understand why it wasn’t given by the umpire it didn’t look high at all

 

[Ghfd]

Still Dom getting big turn and bounce. All good news so far

At first view in real time, I thought it hit him outside the line of off. Didn't think height would be an issue.

Archer is a strange one, I dont for a minute think he is lazy or not trying like some idiots on twitter thing

But he hasn't beem very quick in the majority of his tests since that spell against Steve Smith

Now it could be deliberate, or maybe he isn't sure what he is coming out of


Bowled well today but I'd say he is in the side to bowl quicker

not a criticism really but he just isn't the type of bowler I thought

bowled really well today

great piece this.

Had the honour of meeting the great man at Edgbaston in 2000. Shook his hand and was in complete awe. I've met some famous people over the years, this man was above all others.
