They have a thing called a soft call, and the umpire gave it out.
Ah, I did not know that... I was kinda thinking it was a weird one where there was no initial umpire's call.
Also, I am not sure if I find it more amusing, or cringey, that the TMO was effectively calling the Bangler a liar.I suppose it's like a batsman pretending he didn't Nick one to the keeper.

TBF - The Bangle may not have known that he was touching it, those advertising triangle things are very flimsy and he is in cricket boots. He is entitled to claim it. It is up to the officials to decide after that.

Yeah, I realise that. He'd certainly lifted his foot a bit before looking down and deciding/claiming it was a clean catch.

Conway keeping?
Yes, so we have found our backup keeper for the WC and maybe even our top keeper as I think we have many better batting options than Seifert.
Nice to see Chapman getting another bowl, hope we start to use him more often.

And Conway survives a lazy run.
Conway is the new Ross Taylor
