They did ball tracking on it and it would have hit the base of the stumps. Should have been easy!
England all out for 244. Didn't expect to have a lead!
Root failed to win a review on LBW....one of those where it would have been not out if the umpire on the field had given not out. 
Luckily, Cook just won a review.

That was a whiskers difference for Cook and he didn't look too confident on the review.
Had to review though...wouldn't want to lose him as the settled batsman.
Bangladesh bowler complaining about Cook decision. Commentator just talking about tennis as an example...that was just what I was about to type. In tennis, they accepted that Hawkeye is not totally accurate, so you could win some and lose some, but, if you accept the system, you have to accept the result and get on with it.
Match perfectly poised, half the runs got, half the wickets taken. Ball getting softer which should help us, but who knows how this will go?
If we were 50 runs closer to victory, I'd be backing us from here. Yes we'd still need another 75, but we've got Stokes at the crease and a strong tail (prior to this year, Ansari often batted in the top four for Surrey). But 124 still needed, I can't see it.
