    Is there a reason for using "elected", as it states on Youtube at the mo?

    Is the usual phrase no longer "decided"? Or "chose"?

    Or has something changed?

    Perhaps it's always been "elected"

    I wonder if anyone knows.......

    In a hurry to get back to Headingley. Could be embarrassing for the TV cameras on Friday.

    Don't understand why they don't have crowd noise and the camera angles are poor.

    They’ve used ‘elected’ for as long as I’ve been watching cricket - about 30 years or so.
