Buttler is cruising!



Actually I'm an Australian born to a British father who moved to the UK and moved back again.

And there are plenty of things I like better than seeing England lose. Seeing South Africa lose is right at the top of my list. Seeing England lose is a few steps down, I assure you.

Yep I know, seeing SA lose and then posting up derogatory and inflammatory made-up comments about their team seem to be at the top of your list.

Difficult decision, according to Cricinfo:

Jordan gets into a mix-up as he works away this back of a length to the off side, going down the track in hopes of Woakes reciprocating, but when he sees him stay put, is forced to get back to his end, putting in a dive before the direct hit took shape.

The umpire wants to be careful though as he looks at the replays, which show that the bat may have just turned on Jordan as he attempted to make his ground, with the angle suggesting he might not have had the relevant portion of the bat on the ground when the bails were disturbed. I wouldn't want to be a third umpire right now.

Huge decision in the context of the game. The result has come in, and it is given out, which is greeted with a huge roar across the ground. Jordan can't believe it, but he has to go.

Seems it could have gone either way, and Jordan didn't get the benefit of the doubt which is very surprising.
 
Well im watching it live and from one angle it seemed like the bat may have been in the air but the other angle it looked like the edge of the bat was definitly on the ground. Bad decision in my opinion
