Man, that was a tough call on Root.

Even if it was pad a fraction of a nanosecond before bat, it is harsh.

The 3rd ump has to be able to say there was an obvious reason to change the decision of the on field ump - which means that if he had been given not out he would have remained not out.

but regardless

Definitely hit the pad first!

Has Ryan Harris given up being a fast bowler?

Amazing start by the Aussies!
A couple of centimeters in that front foot though. Very lucky there!

Has Ryan Harris given up being a fast bowler?

Until about the age of 29, Harris was an allrounder who bowled gentle medium pacers.

Then one day, he ran in and bowled fast...VERY fast. He was hitting 93-94mph.

Here he seems to have slowed right down...but still faster than he used to be for most of his career.

I've always thought of Ryan Harris as properly quick so seeing him barely getting above 82 in his first few overs confused me a bit. It seems to be working though! Is this the main reason that his fitness record is much improved in recent times?

Intelligent bowler and didn't he play for Middlesex for a while? Would explain the selection and the familiarity with the slope.
