Letter of the law again. None of this is good for the game.

That catch wasn't letter of the law. If you've played cricket, even as a kid at school, you touch the ground with the ball getting up and it's not out. Anyone whose ever played cricket knows it. Cheating bastards.

Nothing wrong with that, ball isn't dead. Bairstow not concentrating.

Careless from Bairstow but he can’t be the only batsman to do that. I wouldn’t be happy if England took a wicket like that but I suppose I’d take it!

It’s the umpires fault.

He’s looking away and taking the bowlers cap off to give it back to him. So he thinks the over is done and the ball is dead. He’s supposed to call the over finished and the ball dead.

So I’m not having anyone claiming Bairstow is to blame.

Would have loved that bat to lodge firmly between Carey's front teeth.

So many amateur decisions and dubious tactics in both tests by England.
Will end 5-0 if this carries on.

 

[Edghill OG]

It’s out.

How long do you stand there for? Till he calls over?

Ironic thing is that they constantly go on about slow over rates. Hasten the process up and get yourself out. Can't see it but hopefully a monumental siege mentality performance from Stokes now.

Thought he’d wait until after lunch but obviously not!

England wouldn't claim one.... But they might in the next test.
