    I'm going on Sunday, so hoping it gets that far.
    I'm worried about how much play I'll get to see on Saturday...
    This game could be over quite quickly, the way wickets are falling



    i'm very concerned about me for Sunday !

    Being harsh, that's 3 umpiring errors so far this morning. 2 nicks missed, and an incorrect LBW given
    5 errors now. Massive number of DRS reviews reflects this
    Make that 6!

    It looked like it was going down leg to me.
    We'll see in a while.
    I was right.
    They should have reviewed, it was comfortably missing leg stump.
    Worst day's umpiring I can remember for a long time.

    Umpiring has not been good today

    Smith presumably is saving the review for himself, unless he's 100% certain it's wrong.

    Boycott is priceless!

    That might just have been clipping the stumps. But is Pattinson worth a review? 50% of the batting is still in, the other 50%, Warner, is out - the rest can't bat.

    No chance this is going to Sunday unless we lose a lot of time to rain.

    Don't see many of this series lasting until day 4 to be honest.

    From cricinfo:

    Before that Stokes wicket, Woakes & Broad had got the last 17 test wickets between them.
    Combined figures - 41.4-11-102-17

    Basically whatever these umpire give, you just know the correct decision is the opposite. Siddle absolutely middled that!

    Umpires having a shocking day, especially for Day 1 when it's not hot out there

    Just makes it incredulous that India refused to use DRS for many years saying it wasn't good enough !

    Where is Erasmus - he's my favourite umpire!

    Siddle is a stubborn so and so. He might not get many himself but he'll keep an end up for Smith.

    200 plus will be decent given our flaky batting and the fact that we are a bowler down.

    I agree with Vaughan on TMS, we should be allowed to use English and Australian umpires in this series.

    With 7 out of 12 elite umpires English or Australian, that leaves just 5 that can be used. Aleem Dar seems to be permanently umpiring in our home matches!

    How many of the errors have been Wilson?

    154-8 at tea.

    Could do worse than try Denly for an over or two in an attempt to break this stubborn partnership.

    Whilst they take a tea and rain break, anybody fancy giving a brief report of the highlights on the 2 sessions for people, like me, who havnt seen a ball bowled?
