Aleem Dar is the worst loving umpire, jesus christ.
It's like he went "That might be out, gently caress it, give it and they can review". Absolute pillock

England having good success at keeping the runs down and creating uncertainty in the batsman then give a 4 up because gotta bounce the ball. Idiots.

I wish I had a time machine so I could go back in time 1 month and tell myself the second test depends on the batting of TPaine and SMarsh, what the gently caress.

130 runs is poo poo.

That was loving daft. I don't think the umpire's decision was awful - he was wrong as DRS showed, but it wasn't a howler as it was heading down leg. But it was obviously close enough that even it wasn't out, it would've been ump's call and they wouldn't have lost their review - so not doing so was stupid.

e: was that Starc flipping off the Barmy Army?

I think Starc was upset they said his bouncer was above the shoulder, because it wasn't. He was pissed with the square leg ump.

To be honest about the lbw, live I said "not out, going down", so the ump wasn't to blame.

I know this probably isn't advice that Australia will heed, but having your two strike bowlers throwing shade at the people officiating your game could cause them to not rule in your favour during borderline decisions.
