We have absolutely no situational awareness.

Here’s a question… The first role of an opener used to be to see off the new ball. If they’re always just going to ‘go for it’ from ball one is there any reason to use specialists (I use that term lightly in regard to ours!)? Personally I don’t see the point, we might as well just pick the best six batsmen we have and draw lots for what order they bat in.

Not looking good.

Obviously, but for now the gap is six points without a game in hand.

Indeed, but for now we don’t.

We don’t have a game in hand.

That would come under serious missed incident. I was just talking about clear and obvious error.

For me, I think the VAR should get one replay, at full speed, from the nearest angle to which the ref had. If that isn’t enough to show an error then, in my eyes, a clear and obvious one can’t have occurred.

Would they have made him captain if an issue like this was on the horizon? Actually, given who ‘they’ are I’ll answer my own question with a yes.

Isn’t that, to a point, the same thing?
