First one - as plumb as you can get. Pitching middle, little movement

no replays shown, ricinfo suggests an inside edge.
Third one - Pitching just outside off, swinging in to hit middle...

Bonus one (Tharanga) - Pitching on leg and swinging away. Hawkeye
suggests that would have hit the outside of the leg stump. Difficult
to give that one.

... and just as I post this, Jayasuriya gone - c Agarkar b
Zaheer......... some justice.


Really incredible stuff. First one was as plumb as you like - IIRC was
Agarkar's first delivery. Next one
seemed out too, but they did not show hawkeye. Then Zaheer
catches him in front (hawkeye shows impact on middle, trakker confirms
no inside edge), not given (Dar this time, Harper for first two).
Finally Zaheer gets him caught at third man by Agarkar.

I thought Jaya would make us pay - a batsman of his class not doing so
is really hard to believe, but luckily for India, he seemed to be out
of sorts today. On most
other days, Jaya would have gone on to win the game for his side after
3 strokes of such luck.

I agree with you on Tharanga shout - though hawkeye showed it landed
on leg and would have clipped leg, it is very hard to give that one
out for any umpire.

Btw, the Tharanga edge that went wide of second slip - did it also
land short? The replays did not capture it properly. It seemed to have
landed just short of second slip as well. And why is second slip
standing so close to first (this happens often with India). David
Lloyd commented on it before the first ball was bowled, and that might
have already cost us.
