How was the previous ball not called a wide ?

Tough one in the situation. I can understand why he didn’t call it.

Fair play to NZ thought they played fantastic to get back into the game.

Given where we were 18 months ago, we can be so proud of where we are now. To go away to NZ, who are complete home track bullies, and not only compete but dominate over the 2 games, is a fantastic achievement.

We may not have won, but for fucks sake we're putting eyes back on test cricket.

Well done England

It’s a wide or it’s not a wide, and that was a wide

That was one fantastic game. You see Root and Stokes smiling on the outfield, but if you think they were larking about out there you weren’t watching. Burnley Lara‘ll be chunnering about the not-given wide all the way home. Losing a game of cricket you’ve tried your darnedest to win is not the worst thing in the world.

Who's the alternative? He's averaging 36 since Stokes became captain.

Looks like a startled rabbitt.Gotta be someone out there.The aussies will have Popes number.
