Have a safe journey home, third umpire!

Opening for England now, Ashwin is due a failure surely and it should be very close on first innings.

That's an incredible bit of fielding too. Run-in, pick up, throw all perfect to the inch.

his 99 is as good as the 103 by kohli.

on this pitch a 100 is like 150

Not a hugely surprising proposition given that they're separated by one decent shot...

"Cook's composure" is almost becoming a cliche, but was a great bit of work. Never took his eyes off the stumps.

Shouldn't have been given out. But batsman gets piss all benefit these days. May or may not have been out between frames, but looked to me like some part of the bat MAY have been behind the line at the first frames the bails are off. Bugger me to be hung on that evidence.

Chawla must be dissapointed here.

Compared to Jadeja's 3 triple tons, and Ashwin's batting ability he hasn't gotten any plugin at all.

Close, but no panatella ... good call 14 minutes into the day, though.

Seriously? If you're not going to give that, you're not going to give anything. Bat was just on the line and the stumps were doing their best peace salute. Out by about two inches, IMO.

Nah, the angle from behind the stumps is pretty conclusive.

Ooops, who said Chawla can bat?
