That was a better catch than the one Smith claimed and was given against India in the  Oval match.

Yes, looked to me as if his right hand had scooped up the ball into his two hands, without the ball hitting the ground.

Seemed a very weird angle to use to make his decision, straight through Bairstow

It was definitely a close one, I guess we could do what they did for the Labuschange one and go on and on about it for days.

Looked that way to me till they showed the close up front one, it bounced up into his hands and he knew it, but it was close enough to doubt.

Superb bowling from Woakes though, him and Wood and them losing Lyon has turned the series entirely

Anderson just hasn't looked threatening, definitely needs to call it a day now.

A mistake bringing him back, Tongue would have been more effective

Stokes seems to have forgotten that Wood is playing.

It would be so unjust if the weather saved them but I think it might.
