Yeah, funny thing is: it was Warner, Marny & FTB who nicked off 2nd innings, not Mr. NickIt. (But how d'ya nick off when there's no swing and no seam?)
...
Mr. NickIt, Khawaja, did nick it this time.... But he was dropped in the slips.
And Marny still has his new nicking problems.
"Root was involved in the first drop. An edge from Usman Khawaja off Anderson in the fifth over carried, just, to first slip. ...
Worse was to come when Warner, who had batted positively and with some style against the new ball, flashed hard at Broad and an edge flew to Ollie Pope at fourth slip but burst through his hands. He soon left the field with a worrying shoulder injury and did not return."

Warner seems to be getting out bowled a lot. Maybe even more than FTB Smith is getting out LBW to straight balls on the stumps while swiping across the line to legside. (And that is a lot!!) Both playing on and clean bowled to very full balls (low full tosses, really).
Sadly, I was right. Warner out bowled again.
If the bookies offer DM bowled odds for Warner, maybe it's time to jump on.
Sad to see batters get out the same way over and over again. Khawaja nicking, Warner being bowled, Carey reverse sweeping, FTB Smith LBW swiping across the line of straight balls to the legside...
Imagine how they'd go if the pitches were actually fair to bowlers, instead of dead.
