Anyone know the law regarding the Bowled on the free hit? I can’t recall a situation like that before. 

The only way you can be dismissed on a free hit is run out. Did the right thing in running.

Dead ball when the WK picked the stump out. I don't know why he didn't take it out straight away. Seemed to delay. 

 

Never seen it before either. 

[Swarles Barkley]

Proper Spursed it. Incredible

[StanSP]

We were 45-4 off 10 overs. 

 

115 off the final 10. 

 

Can't even begin to explain that last over or two. Credit to both sides for producing such drama.

Interesting but it must be difficult to think that quickly in the situation 

[leicsmac]

Magnificent entertainment for the neutral, that.

Very lucky to get that no-ball, remember that has to be above waist height in his normal batting stance , he came down the wicket a long way, by the time it had got to his original stance that could have easy been below waist height, can understand Pakistan being a bit aggrieved. Why didn't they look at a replay before giving the decision. Brilliant game though.

I think it just about qualifies as a no ball. Just above waist height. 

 

Trying not to be biased! 

[Brainy]

That was not a no ball

I think the one earlier in the over looked slightly higher, although that batsman was also a long way down the pitch. Think the umpire gave the second one because he didn't give the first one. Still think given the importance of the situation he should have asked for a side on replay.

Ackermann nearly rescued Netherlands' innings against Bangladesh. They were 26-4 at one stage. Only lost by 9 runs in the end.

£75 a ticket for the Ashes day 4 at Headingley. Hope it gets to day 4 with how we’ve been playing recently 

[StanSP]

That review from Aus  

[Super_horns]

Stokes gone now.

 

England in a pickle .

 

Need the middle order to get motoring .

[StanSP]

Err, wtf is going on 

[Voll Blau]

Never underestimate Ireland...

[RowlattsFox]

You can always rely on England for a potential world cup shock. 

[Super_horns]

Down to you Moeen and Livingstone..

[StanSP]

Rain. Plays massively in Ireland's hands. 

 

Overs to be lost and England are behind the DLS par score. 

[chrishlcfc]

Game over not getting back on

[Osavo]

Totally our own fault for attacking too late. Well played Ireland, no less than they deserved.

[StanSP]

Game over. Ireland win

 

[RowlattsFox]

Probably see that through without the rain but well done Ireland.

A great win for them .

 

But England were too passive .

 

Poor start meant we weren’t able to put pressure on them .

Didn’t deserve a thing.

Fine margins,if they had played out the over the way Moeen was batting.we probably would have won.Although that would have been unfair on Ireland.

Such a shame that games don’t run there course.South Africa only had to step on the square the other day to win on DL and didn’t get to.
