Should have added Umpires need to be selected to "suit the conditions" ie their background or upbringing as an umpire.

I would gladly have any of the English Test panel umpiring given DRS is available.

Each umpire has made 5 mistakes in just over 4 sessions of play .... must be a record, surely

F*** any danger in these edges and false shots going to hand?

Some Jaffa’s being bowled here that are just missing the bat too.

Lucks got to turn soon.

Yep bowling pretty well with no luck at all, its all going Root and Burns way at the moment making it frustrating to watch.

Ridiculous review by Aust for LBW by Paine 3rd over with the new ball

Pitching a mile outside leg

To call for a review there and not when Lyon had Burns Plumb is just mindboggling :shock: :roll:

Well done Rory, not pretty and some luck but a really gritty knock which we have been crying out for. Stokes looks in really good form.

Tail wagging.
Any chance Lyon could toss it up outside off stump. Neither of these guys have driven him
