  1. Michael Vaughan
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    I thought that was unfortunate for the batsman to be given out. I thought there had to be absolute proof it was out and I don't think there was.

  2. SL 353-9

    Angelo Mathews gives himself some room but Mark Wood follows him, and Mathews turns down the single on offer.

    Mathews has to take a single eventually, and he offers Fernando soe advice on seeing out the over.

  3. Right then, Angelo, what can you do?

  4. How's stat?!

    Andy Zaltzman
    Test Match Special statistician

    This is Jos Buttler's 28th Test as wicketkeeper and his first stumping.

  5. SL 352-9

    Lead by 66

    Asitha Fernando and his first-class average of four sees out the over.

  6. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Former England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    Perera will be a little bit frustrated. It was milimetres but from the side-on angle there was nothing behind the line. It was nifty work by Buttler.

  7. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    I think that is the correct decision. Mickey Arthur shakes his head. I would like to ask him which part of the boot was behind the line.

    WICKET

    Perera st Buttler b Leach 24 (SL 352-9)

    Mickey Arthur is fuming.

    Well, it's out. When you look at it side on, the boot is on the line, but there's nothing behind it. Fine work from Jos Buttler, as it was a fizzing delivery from Jack Leach and Dilruwan Perera had a little tickle at the ball as he came forward.

    A lead of 66 with one wicket left...

  9. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    I think this has to be given out.

  10. I... honestly don't know.

    The boot is on the line but is there anything behind it?

  11. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Former England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    I can't see anything behind the line.

  12. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    Is any of his foot behind the line?

    This could be out.

  13. Dilruwan Perera had come forward and has he just dragged his foot out of the crease?

  14. Umpire review

    A beauty from Jack Leach, some more sharp turn, and Jos Buttler has the bails off...

  15. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    Wood's pace is up but the pitch is dead. He is trying to flog something from it.

  16. Get Involved

    Dan Gee: Get Broad on.

  17. SL 351-8

    Perera and Mathews exchange singles with a couple of nudges off the hip.

    27 overs left in the day..

  18. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Former England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    That was really nicely played. Perera read the length early.

  19. SL 348-8

    Lead by 62

    Dilruwan Perera latches on to a leggy delivery from Jack Leach and sends it flying through the egrets and crows at deep square leg to pick up four.

  20. Ah, the pessimism of the England fan. Never fails to appear.
