Yes, he was in his crease, but when the bails were broken there was nothing grounded behind the line. I've seen those given out before. Jordan was really unlucky, but according to the laws of the game, it was probably the correct decision.

I am not one for knee jerk reactions so I will let things settle a bit but I would expect Moores to be replaced for the manner in which he planned for this World Cup!

How about this knee jerk reaction??? Ottiss Gibson's one year temporary bowling stint to ENG prior to the WC ? Should it be terminated immediately???
[quote author=Mail? link=topic=96347.msg624568#msg624568 date=1425993348] Has Opiss had recent dealings with the ECB?
That explains why Anderson could not get swing to save his life........
Opiss strikes again and should be retained for his effectiveness and consistency in ruining everything he touches and achieving nothing he is around!
Long live Opiss and his notebook!

You didn't know ??? :o Ottiss messed up ENG's bowling in the South African bowling camp !!!....Ottiss reversed Jimmeh's swing !!!
Given England's complete and utter failure by their frontline seamers, you have to think there is a strong chance that David Saker will be replaced, especially as he already took a leave of absence at the end of last year. As timid and dour as the batting was, the bowling was even worse.
England were pathetic this worl cup,When japanese and malaysian cricket trol lyou,you can understand england team's plight.They seem to have played their last WC

The players in this squad or England as a country? England and Wales are hosting the 2019 World Cup. As for the current players, there are still young players in this team with high level talent - especially Root and Buttler. The bowling is the bigger problem going forward.
look closely at the shoulder of the bat as he was sliding it in...it was touching the ground and it passed the line (grounded) when the ball hit the wicket.
I have a feeling the umpire was looking at the toe end of the bat...which was indeed up in the air but thats irrelevant! The shoulder was grounded!

I agree...he was NOT out!

To my eye, it also looked as though the shoulder of the bat was touching the ground. I just don't think there was enough conclusive evidence to give that out.
