If less that 50% is hitting then they stay with the umpires decision

What a strange rule. Maybe VAR could incorporate a similar rule for offsides, pens etc.?

Fuck me. Boult has it swinging around corners.

Works well in cricket, VAR is just abused.

Yeah, I find it odd as well. Surely, if hawkeye shows that the ball is going on to hit the stumps, irrespective of by how much, then the batsman should be given out. I was told on here a couple of days back that it is because hawkeye is only about 99% accurate and that the benefit of the doubt should go to the batsman. Hmm.

as long as all the decisions are the same then fair enough, unlike our footy var will be

This is a really engaging contest between top bowlers and top batsmen right now.

Unless with VAR where the benefit of doubt goes with Liverpool.
