Oh dear!  I've always been a fan of the DRS but that is the third or fourth time in this series that it has "upheld" an absolute shocker.  There's no way that a ball brushing a fraction of the top of one bail should be LBW...

Without DRS the umpire gave it out so either way it's out.

Excellent decision By the umpire I think. 2 inches or 2mm the ball was hitting the stumps if his pad wasn't in the way

You always need luck in a good innings. Poms don't seem to have any luck at all at the moment

Got to feel for bell as looking at replays he would have got back if the keeper had taken it then stumped him

One thing DRS is doing is educating Adnan Akmal about the LBW rule, 16 unsuccessful appeals thru DRS lol Misbah & co need to have a word

Why not? His pad prevented the ball from hitting it, where it otherwise would have.

I see your point though, how accurate is the system really and how can it say that the ball is or is not going to just hit the stumps.

That'll be the end of Morgan's Test career then.  Shame, as he has lots of talent in the shorter forms of the game.

I don't agree, he will be back, not for a while though.

I do think the should be a hard and fast rule for how much of the ball needs to be hitting regardless of the umpires original decision.

England is 0-6 (or 99-6) not a bad comeback from Pakistan

Pakistan's batting line up is super shaky and England's middle order is brutal against the spinning ball. makes for addictive viewing though.

I reckon he might get another chance in the 2nd innings? Big prssur on the lad though, huge!
