Drama, emotions, and the two                          spectacula  0r run outs                                                                                    
 There were two direct hits onWednesday in Manchester. And   between these two runouts came the essence of all sport-viewing - drama. Nothing enhances drama like cricket, which allows more time to dwell on such moments     The first of those direct hits came from Ravindra Jadeja, with a swift pick-up and release from deep square leg to catch Ross Taylor short. The athletic brilliance of that direct hit is best seen live when all the action can be taken in at once, with a better sense of the dimensions of the ground. Old Trafford offers big square boundaries, where a double is an option almost every time the ball crosses the infield. A prancing Jadeja though, made an early statement that he was not going to play along like the rest.
