Makes sense now - 8 down

Edit: Thanks Sinbad. I am restricted to reading the game

Glad I'm not that third umpire

CricInfo stopped updating.

Or the game is on pause somehow.

Anyone seen the "runout" itself, according to crizzbuzz it is a bizarre and brave call?

Yup, which part was brave and bizarre? The decision to try for the run, the decision to abort it, or the umpire's call?

 

[Creag]

Is the fat lady warming up?

 

[Rusty0]

It looked out, in the last still frame they showed, there was actual light between the bat and ground...

4 sub-contintent sides in the Quarter Finals??? SL, PAK, IND & BD!

Europe has been an absolute failure in this sport!

From one angle it looked out, from another it looked in. I think based on the fact there was doubt, it should have been given not out.

prudvi raj: "Very tough decision. Surprised to see that was given out. whatever happened to benefit of doubt in favor of batsmen. "

Valid statement. However, bowlers have been the whipping boys for most of the tournament.

There was a lot of doubt.

Doubt should've gone to the batsman.

 

[Creag]

England require another 31 runs with 2 wickets and 18 balls remaining

The task keeps getting steeper!

 

[Sinbad]

The umpires call

Batsman was sliding in with the bat on the ground (inside the crease), but it seemed to bounce up off the ground as the ball hit the wicket.

 

[Wall]

Cracking end to this match...

 

[thestaggy]

They don't need to be stupid. Big over so far.

 

[ZCFOutkast]

Dropped it

 

[sand_man]

Shame man, my heart is breaking for the Bangles right now!!! WOW!!!

 

[ZCFOutkast]

Then missed a runout

 

[Unhappy1]

Bangladesh lost their heads under pressure here.
