Cricket



This has happened quite a few times, such that the law 31.7 was added about 6-7 years ago to cover this scenario I think.

If the batsman was given out as a result of the passage of play in that video, then it is poor umpiring and poor sportsmanship from the opposition not to recall the batsman. The umpire should have called a dead ball when the batsman left his ground believing he had been out caught behind.

31.7 Batter leaving the wicket under a misapprehension

An umpire shall intervene if satisfied that a batter, not having been given out, has left the wicket under a misapprehension of being out. The umpire intervening shall call and signal Dead ball to prevent any further action by the fielding side and shall recall the batter.

A batter may be recalled at any time up to the instant when the ball comes into play for the next delivery, unless it is the final wicket of the innings, in which case it should be up to the instant when the umpires leave the field.
 
Looks like a very very average England squad for a “new dawn”

Side looking like

Crawley
Lees
Pope
Root
Bairstow
Stokes
Foakes
Overton
Broad
Leach
Anderson

No Parkinson in the 17, Potts & Brook as reserves with a few others.
 
Pathetic team

Parkinson taking tonnes of wickets? No, we’ll leave him out.
Crawley unable to score runs? Sound, we’ll give him another go
Lees looked out of his depth on the last tour? Alright, bring him back too.

Who bats 3? Pope? There’s plenty of lads scoring runs in the CC that you can easily give a go instead. My god.

Don’t get me started on Overton either.
 
Lancashire in a bit of a pickle. Essex eventually out for 397, Lancashire 14-4, Jennings, Bohannon, Croft and Wells out.

England selectors are so weird
