Wilson just throws darts at a board tbh. A guy with a 35% overturn rate shouldn't be a third umpire

Atrocious batting from Cumins and Starc to play at those balls. Inexcusable with the situation the game is at. Lyon actually leaves balls that don’t need to be played at alone and for this he should be elevated higher than those 2.

Of course none of this would happen if the top order offered anything. It’s really their fault.

Ultimately the rules need to be changed. I've got no issue with that being out, but this fingers under the ball stuff goes directly against the fact you can't utilise the ground to gain or maintain control. Two fingers under a ball with the rest of it in the grass is probably less legal than a guy rolling over and pushing the ball into the grass while it's fully in his hand
 

Chins get the wins

You can't give that and not give our one

Ah well. Just gotta roll India for less than 200 and hope Bumrah can't bowl. Good rock tbh.

Good debut innings…. I know the wicket is helpful but this fella bowls a lot of decent balls…. Too many loose ones too of course
