As much as the water that was on the surface when we were fielding on the first day ? Sky showed water splashing up when Woakes was running after the ball.Chizz said:

The sport couldn't help the bad lightExiled_Addick said:Why test cricket is such and amazing sport yet also slowly dying all summed up here. Ebb and flow from session to session across 4 days following a topsy turvey series. Into the final throws of the game and series with everything as finely poised and exciting as you could hope for. Fuck off for bad light and utterly kill the moment. The sport doesn’t help itself sometimes.

Agreed. He’s still got a better defence than the tail Enders though - Root should have been in his ear to say that 3 off 30MarcusH26 said:Bethell is a fantastic talent but he's been completely mismanaged this summer. Should be playing all the time for Warwickshire and learning his craft , I know the County Champ has been a bit of a mess with the Kookaburra rounds and pitches being absolute roads but time in the middle is what he needs.

Not a morning to arrive late if you have tickets for today!0

Woakes to bat if needed and if so possibly left handed as his lead shoulder, in his usual stance, is the one he has injured.0

Can’t see us getting these runs.Fear Siraj will steam in and knock them over0

Shocking 3 shots by Smith this morning. 3 getting out shots.1

Absolutely brainless from Smith. No idea what the umpires were reviewing either1

The umpires weren't checking the nick, they were checking if it carried.2

Absolutely, you still shouldn’t be reviewing it for the other side with no reviews left thoughkillerandflash said:

Guarantee after he took 2 hours to raise the finger that it was going to be umpire's call.0
-
Such a jammy jammy call. Didn’t think that was out first time. Absolute hair touching the stumps.2

Burn your reviews, the umpires will give you everything. Good to know1
-
Well that's a very harsh out.
Pretty much all marginal decisions are given not out.
Anything that close has been given not out all series.1 - Sponsored links:

Umpires Call evens things out, but that was the barest minimum of contact1
-
Hate India more than Millwall and Celtic5

They always do. It's why the standing umpire went to the square leg umpire before referring it. He cannot give the batter out without reviewing it. Checking whether he hit it is an afterthought. That is standard protocol. India still have a review and there is no doubt whatsoever that they would have reviewed that even if it had been given "not out" initially.Pelling1993 said:
