Cricket: Scotland were left scratching their heads, after Josh Inglis was allowed to remain at the crease, despite being bowled, thanks to the umpire deeming the delivery to have been a dead ball.
Inglis backs away... after being bowled? | 00:55Ollie Pope returned to form on his home ground with a first hundred as England captain on Friday’s opening day of the third Test against Sri Lanka at The Oval.
And England should arguably have had another century-maker on Friday, with opener Ben Duckett, not for the first time, giving his wicket away after making 86. Root was fresh from two hundreds in a 190-run win at Lord’s where he set a new England record of 34 Test centuries. Number three Pope, who made a hundred against the West Indies at Trent Bridge in July, got off the mark in style by cutting a loose ball from fast bowler Rathnayake for four and then hooked a six off Kumara.
