Pretty poor from England. In five of the nine innings in this series the batting side has scored less than 200 runs. I know conditions have been decent for the bowlers but it does seem a lot of modern players lack the technique to bat long in test cricket.
So how on Earth can Joe Root be out caught here? The video quite clearly shows the ball in contact with the ground before it's in the fielders hands. There's seems to be a weird blind spot in cricket about catches like this, where all the commentators have claimed these catches in the past so think that the slow-motion video is somehow 'wrong'.
