Gone!
Pattinson gone for 0.
112-7.
Replays show that Pattinson’s ball was missing the wickets.
Lol.
Broad to Pattinson, OUT , booming inswinger, obliterating the front pad! Dar gives it straight away , although it may well have been doing too much again… No thought of a review from Pattinson, however, perhaps under orders not to waste it with Smith entrenched. Broad has his fourth and Edgbaston lets rip with another throaty roar! EDIT: That was missing leg!
JL Pattinson lbw b Broad 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
Yeah, I just turned the cricket on in time to see the wicket replay, as soon as I saw it I thought to myself that it was missing the stumps.
Bob was proved correct, Bob is going to talk in the first person, a la Baz, from now on.
Cummins plum.
Not to me
“I’m not sure Anderson’s fitness will help.
I’ll go with:
Bat: Root (but will probably be Smith)
Ball: Cummins (I think he’ll play in every test and he is more consistent)
Result. Close. I’ll go for a positive 2-1 to the mighty England.”
Stokes joins the party!
Looked a bit high to me
This is all very well but will we avoid the follow on?
Is Stokes a seam bowler or a spinner?
Woakes the wicket keeper comes into the attack.
That’s crazy!
Siddle gone but he’s confidently reviewing it.
Massive inside edge.
He’s safe.
Umpire’s are having a 'mare.
It seems he seams it but is getting tweaks like an offie
Nasser has just done a review of the Umpire’s decisions.
Nearly all of the dismissal decisions have been wrong. Either giving them out when they weren’t or giving them not out when they were.
And that was before the Siddle mistake.
Nightmare.
Have they the Umpires got a single decision right today?
He is an all rounder, and a very one sided one at that, you wouldn’t pick him solely for his bowling.
He bowls seam. Deal with it.
