They were getting the singles and twos far too easy in their innings, New Zealand have been really tight with their bowling.
 
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.

It's partly because Hawkeye can't predict swing, and even a small amount of swing could take the ball away.

The trade-off is that a review isn't lost to an umpire's call outcome.
