[elder]

getting battered here, really good bowling.

Just caught up..... Seeing James Vince nick one behind whilst driving -again- just makes me angry now.

Nice bloke apparently though. Popular in the dressing room.

Can’t wait to see Mark Wood crank it up on this fast bouncy pitch......

Who would you drop for him though? To me they've picked the right set, with Broad arguably most under pressure.

What a great half hour of play to wake to btw.

 

[Sweeper]

Umpire cock up. That’s caught the glove that’s off the bat. You can see it on the hot spot.

 

[Steak Pie]

That's wrong, they've got that wrong.

Hand is off the bat, it can't be out.

 

[ollie c]

You're f***ing joking me?

 

[Steak Pie]

You simply can't give that.

It's not out Aleem, swallow your pride and do the right thing.

 

[LD19SAFC]

What a f***ing joke.

Its not as if they needed any f***ing help!

I'm nee big cricket fan or expert but fuck me how can he give that out?

Ridiculous

 

[NorthCountryBoy]

Boycott called it immediately on comms. Surely there are people around that can give him a nudge?

It's a good job, he seems to be there a lot.

 

[Sweeper]

Unless they are going to put this pitch away later and roll out a damp green one for us to bowl on, I worry that we may end up asking why England have decided to come to a gun fight with a cheese knife.

 

[Steak Pie]

That's disgraceful.

 

[LD19SAFC]

fuck Aleem Dar.

 

[NorthCountryBoy]

Put the hook shot away you dick.

 

[Sweeper]

Put the hook shot away you dick.

To be fair he looks much more assured on the hook than most of the others do defending. Stoneman could easily have been out 3/4 times before he was. He was playing the short stuff terribly.

 

[Steak Pie]

Lovely cover drive from Malan for 4, on appeal Aleem Dar gives it out........

I just can’t fathom how there’s conclusive evidence on Dar’s first viewing to overturn the on-field umpires decision.
