I love Mark Wood

Was just coming in to post in a similar vein. Not a coincidence that the attack is performing much better.

On an unrelated note, great to see Sarah Taylor move into coaching. A fantastic talent, whose career was sadly cut short. Great that she's back in the game and I wish her all the success she richly deserves - I remember Gilchrist described her as the best in the world. Serious praise.

Aaaaaand now Kohli is teeing off...

Massive over.

Kohli gone cheaply, (again).
England must have improved their chances with that wicket.

Cricket tw@tter will be going ballistic at that...

If they replay that again, they'll wear out the tape.

It's an interesting one, given the soft signal, I can understand why it was given out. The question for me is the use of a soft signal in this type of thing, but not sure what the alternative is, I guess no soft signal and the benefit of the doubt is given to the batsman.

Always used to be the way. Less so now with the soft signal, as you say. Decision made and it's in the book, so...

but not sure what the alternative is

Umpires can refer a catch themselves without the soft signal, like they already do for a stumping or run-out? (pretty sure they used to be able to do this anyway)

It's Pandya time.......

Here we go again...

And the soft signal does it again...

Think this one was right though. the boundary sponge doesn't move.

White and red shoes and white and red rope sponge doesn't help (+ no HD cameras?).

Ugh. That's that then.

Chris Jordan - WOW!

Insanity!

The real time replay is nuts!

That is ridiculous

One of the best I've ever seen

That was some batting performance from India.

Lucky it's easier batting second right?

What an awful shot.

The fake Indian supporters cheering England runs are getting on my nerves.

This is fun

At the NZ v Bangladesh ODI at Hagley Oval. Not a cloud in the sky, good crowd in. Hopefully Bang put up a decent score this time.
