"During the Afghanistan-Australia clash, a massive umpiring blunder went unnoticed. After Nabi & Co. opted to bowl first, Naveen-Ul-Haq bowled a five-ball over. However, none of the umpires took note of the mistake and proceedings continued uninterrupted. "

Unforgivable. How can the two field umpires, reserve umpire and the TV umpire miss that? In a World Cup game especially, that’s appalling 🙈

Smith burns review in horror return

Steve Smith's return to the Aussie side went horribly, burning a review on a plumb lbw to be dismissed cheaply.

Not the first time... Not the worst time. Worse was in the Pakistan Test. FTB nicked off... and then reviewed . Snicko showed a huge edge!! Commentators were gobsmacked that FTB would review that, given he must've known he nicked it.

Back to this dismissal... We've seen it before. FTB's defective technique is destroyed if there's even a teeny weeny bit of movement. He swipes across the line to legside, so LBW & bowled are always in play if there's anything for bowlers. Watch the replay. You can see leg stump as the ball hits the pads. Crazy to believe that was missing leg stump.

[Donny]

SL elected to bat first.

Good start. 0/32 after 3 overs.

[Donny]

1/39 after 4 overs.
