There's only two members of the side who were born when Headingly happened. One of them was less than six months old.

I'm fully aware of why it went to umpires call, I just think that it looked dead plumb. There was a coat of varnish in it to be overturned as well.

Yeah but in terms of getting a not-out overturned it was miles away. You could delude yourself into thinking it might be clipping, but crashing into off to the extent the review is successful?

In the context of the match situation it wasn't a bad review. I had a feeling it was closer than it turned out to be at first glance, so I can understand why they reviewed. With the benefit of hindsight, slow mo replays and the technology available to assess a review it was unsuccessful, so yes it looks bad.

As magnificent as he has been since taking the helm, I must say I was disappointed with Clarke's captaincy this morning

It's so negative, ludicrous and a proven failed formula, to put everyone back for the better batsman, and just focus on the tailender

He was treating Chandinal as Bradman
