And Jack Shantry is Joel Wilson!

On Saturday we witnessed Sean Dickson turn it AB de Villiers, we almost had Ryan Patel do a Brian Lara this afternoon and now Tom Lawes has become Allan Donald.

Can't forget it Paul. Burgess too, same game in 202.

This has happened to us before at The Oval re. umpiring.

The Hain one is plum but i just don't see how the umpire can be giving the Davies one out?! Such a big moment

Oh come on umpire that has to be missing leg

Not sure what Yates could have done about that delivery, perfect to a left hander, but he is in need of a score...

Maybe I'm feeling negative but I can see Worrall and Atkinson running riot on this...

Commentary so biased and awful. Yuk yuk yuk

Who's been on?

Norcross and Collins - just awful!

At one stage Norcross was saying such a shame Surrey lost the toss as restricts their opportunity to bowl out Warwickshire twice. Then he said it was good Surrey were being bowled out as allowed them to bowl lots of overs on first day.

Collins is just a buffoon!

Yeah Norcross is woeful

Feel like Surrey are 160-5 in most games but somehow end up 320 plus. Hopefully not today...

The body language off all involved said a lot.

I'd suggest rewinding the stream and watching the delivery a few times, the comentators seemed to think it was a drop too.
Overall a pretty good day for us so far.

I appreciate the feedback, cheers, like I say I felt it was out. I think we've bowled well. Feel like there's enough in this pitch that if you bowl in the right areas consistently you will get your rewards. Can't get too full.

Haha

Oh yeah if not a 'drop' it's a dreadful take.

Cheers. Did he nick it then? In my humble opinion it was a nick, but like I say, I saw it once here at the ground.

Highveld this must be a big moment for you mate?!

Yeah perhaps, it was dropped that quick (straight at him, straight in, straight out, a dolly no doubt) it was hard to gauge reaction. I've also only seen it once, anybody watching the live stream?

4 down now, deserved.

Slips sort of half went up. Bamber and Barnard bowling really well here.

Davies drops Lawrence on 5. Well Bamber's reaction suggested there was maybe a nick.

Its being replayed on Sky here...
