Just watching the highlights

what was the crack with our lbw review when they were batting  , the replay showed it was in line and would hit the wicket so the third eye gave it back as Umpires review , who gave it not out  ??

As Hawkeye or whatever system they use has to predict the path of the ball after it hits the batsmen then it generally has to be above a certain % chance of hitting the stumps to overturn the onfield umpire's decision.  Generally if it's clipping the bails then it goes with whatever the umpire gave but you don't lose your review.  It's a similar balance football is trying to achieve with the 'clear and obvious error' thing.

Just think the England batting line up looks a bit short... missing Hales no doubt. 

Bowling well here though.
