Farcical a team should lose a review for it when it goes to umpire's call like that.

I still don't understand why, if the ball is going to hit the stumps, It's given Not Out.
Trott out... caught down the leg side... 15-2

You have to factor in that Hawkeye is not 100% accurate. So if the umpire gave it not out, that decision should stand. If the Umpire had given that out and England had reviewed it, it would have been given out.

LBW is always a hypothetical, Hawkeye is an enhanced prediction but a prediction nonetheless, and the ICC don't want to take out the role of the umpire completely, so their judgement is still key.
Although given the umpiring in this match, their judgement has been simply poor.

Erm no. He does have no control. It's just that he got away with a few and then settled in to make a big score. Hope he can emulate that today.
If I was so wrong 'again', how is it that you got banned (again) and I didn't?
Blimey... Siddle gets the edge from Root... and a sitter is dropped by Clarke at 2nd slip. 
England are really under pressure here...

OK, thanks. One more question though.
Do they lose a review even if it finds in their favour or is it Tennis style?
Nothing on hotspot... no clear deflection.. but a slight sound... may well be given...
OUT
England 27-3 and in real trouble now.

No - if the review is correct, then they don't lose one of their two.
It's not going to matter for England now, as both have been used... and failed.
