How does `time added on` work? Is it up to the umpire to add on if a result looks likely (not that it will get that far)?

This is why I got annoyed yesterday when Leach went for shots and didn't concentrate on taking time out of the game. We were never seriously looking to win it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Australia giving runs away to keep Bairstow off strike - let`s hope he can rein his white-ball instincts in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
