Slowly watching yesterday's play this afternoon, so haven't seen the Bonner one. I'm only up to Azhar's wicket.In both disciplines.
I think we saw an example this morning of how drs has changed umpiring. For so long there is no way that shout on Bonner would have been given out. Umpires have a tendency to err on the side of ‘drs will save me if I get it wrong.’ Height ones more than anything have seen the former conventions dispensed with
Also, the WI are painfully slow as far as over rates go. I get that they're all fast bowlers, but they're lucky to get through 9 overs in an hour sometimes. Roach is a terrific bowler, but god does he slow the game down!
