Bring Dani on to Pietersen, early in his innings. In/out field. Toss him the bait, see if he bites.
 
We should strike soon. We usually do after lunch, let's hope it long continues.
 
So which team do you guys think is winning, at the advantage at the moment?
 
Aamir's going to get injured...the amount of bowling hes does with the expectation attached
 
Didnt know KP average have gown down under 50. Must have done bad in recent tests.
 
KP is afraid of the in-ducker thats why he is making sure he plays at everything pitched up!!!
 
Not enough part of the ball was hitting the stumps so Decision of the umpire stands.....!!!:(

!!
 
step up or down... who cares... it was hit in line .... ball landing inside line ... ball hitting wicket... THATS OUT
 
so this system is also made for batsman :)

hopefully this will help pakistan as well when they bat .. and LBW shout go against them ..
 
So Pakistan has now used up both reviews and England are well place only 2 wickets down!

Crap!
 
How has Kamran gone from being good with the gloves against Australia to this :/
 
Akmal doing a good impression of a juggling clown!
 
out or not dosen't matter akmals dropping everything we wont get another wicket!
 
Everyone has to remember - this system is there to remove absolute howlers.

The ones clipping the stumps cannot be given based on this system. It's just not fair.

EXACTLY

this SYSTEM of judging SUCKS bit time HONESTLY

If the umpire gave it out and Pietersen referred it then it would have stayed out.

The review system is there to overturn the blatantly bad decisions, not the close ones.

"had de Silva given it out on field that would not have been overturned either. So, Pakistan are down to one review "

What kind of system is that? England should have been 4 down by now, stupid UDRS! Seriously this system sucks big time.
 
At leas half the ball must be hitting the stump for the umpire to overturn the call on the pitch.

Yeah,you are absolutely right..Also it works in such a way that it is difficult to overturn on field umpire's decision...
 
That half the ball must be hitting the stumps rule in review system is utter garbage. You know if it was given out and England appealed it would have been out still. Flawed system.
 
Good to see some singing from the England fans !

Gotta love Test match atmosphere at English grounds !
 
Cricinfo - Greg from South Africa emails in: "I still agree with a past comment that calling it the Third Umpire Review Decision System would lend itself to a far better abbreviation." :))):))):))

Yaar,it is useful in a way that it eliminates howlers...You cant over-rule marginal decisions...!!
