*Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

Looked like a clear inside edge, but meh.

Yeah, hotspot shows the edge was clearly before pad, but probably for the greater good. Ravi been embarrassingly bad this series.

Not really. Definitely inside edge but in real-time it's almost impossible to tell. Even with slow-motion replay and hot spot you see it only touch the bat 1/100th of a second earlier than the pad.
So if it's almost impossible to tell the doubt goes to the batsman, yeah? Or should.

I agree. Looked totally out in real-time.

Yeah, 2 sounds and all that. Anyway, probably didn't change much as you said earlier. And Aus got some shockers at lord's which were probably far more influential, so what the heck.

I don't think there was doubt in Rauf's mind. If there is doubt, then it shouldn't be given IMO. It was the wrong decision, I just thought saying it was awful was a bit harsh. There have been some real shockers in this series already and those are what I'd term awful.

What a Bell. (see what I did there? Comedy genius tbh)

No surprise to see Ian Bell bottle it when we really need him. Need to change the whole middle order tbh.
