I guess all the umpires have same education under ICC

These guys must be on Shastris payroll then!

Horrendous umpiring. 3rd umpire didn't follow the correct protocol and watch the whole video.

And Root clearly asked the on field umpire if the glove was checked and he lied to him and nodded his head!

Home umpires were abolished for this sort of thing. Whos seen the image of Michael Holding kicking the stumps down?

This and a few other incidents - why move away from neutral umpires?!
And that stumping was also clearly out.

Theres a global pandemic on.

Although as noted by Jason Holder recently - if the players can travel surely the umpires can aswell

Indian feed, believe that's standard in much of the world?

Imagine they're contractually obliged to use the Indian feed. Probably more hassle than it's worth given how long they had to put arrangements in place as well.

This forum has damaged my brain, took me about a second to look at Foakes replacement keeping pad to clock it wasn't GN, realise it was M&H and assume it's Bracey's. Have to accept badger status now I think.

Agree, he has looked quality. Levels above anyone else in international cricket for my money.

Not a terrible day for England but certainly up against it. Cant help the toss I guess.

Whats worrying is that Root looks considerably better as an off spinner than both Bess and Mo!

Impressed with Stone and Foakes, two guys brought in today.

Most places use KPH. ICC and Sky show it in both.
And it could be changed but I don’t see C4 being that worried about it to get there own dedicated graphics feed just to change the speeds...

I found it interesting that Foakes was using last seasons GN Powerbow gloves which now aren't available. I realise that as a keeper you obviously have a favourite pair of gloves etc.... but I would have thought GN would have sent him this years new gloves and wanted him to be wearing those.

Its weird - you notice him before the ball, because he starts from such a weird position, but you never notice his glovework itself.  It just....happens....

It’s great to watch a good keeper, the difficult takes he makes look easy. I think it can lift the team as well knowing you have someone sharp it breeds confidence.
The stumping that was not given was quick work.
