Basically didn't even hit him in line while travelling further down leg side. Good job. The epitome of a "fast bowlers think everything is out" scenario.

Mark Nicholas is right about the cookie-cutter circular multisport arenas being a bad idea for cricket. They made baseball in America struggle for 20 years. It didn't recover until they knocked the arenas down and replaced them with baseball-specific grounds modeled on the ballparks that existed before the generic arenas.

Windies have a battle n their hands in the current tour match against basically a team of scrubs not wanted for their province's T20 teams. https://scoring.nzc.nz/livescoring/match4671/scorecard.aspx

I think that drop ins can be good. The Adelaide Oval I think people will agree has got better since it moved to a drop in. There is a danger of cookie-cutter grounds but i also can't see why drop ins cant be decent ??? Yeah the MCG drop in is famously bad but so has been the WACA for the last 5 years and the SCG is often hit and miss and they are permanent pitches

Burn Down Canberra posted:Its weird that Root hasn't given Overton a crack with the new ball. He has been their best bowler by miles this test. Each time I turn to look at the screen and see another ball go half a metre over the batsman's head, I grit my teeth a little more and turn back to something else. Give Overton and ... err ... his twin brother Overtonne the ball at either end. Broad especially just seems angry. If this is just him falling for the "they bounced me so I'm going to bounce them back" bullshit against non-tail enders then loving just give him a rest. For a game or a spell or something who the gently caress knows. If you just want some running exercise then go for a loving lap around the block. Woakes is at least aiming at the cracks. Given that about the only way it looks like Steve Smith is ever going to get out is when he hesitantly plays something onto his stumps when he realises mid-delivery he only adjusted himself 17 times and not 18 before this ball, then your next best bet is some random unpredictable deviation from normal off of a crack. As I type this he pitches one well short of a length but not a true bouncer and comfortably outside off which Smith just politely thanks him for and dispatches to the fence.

He does know literally that every batting action that Smith has is ... just plain awkward, right?

Smith getting 170 is very disrespectful to England.

Smith is constantly in battle with himself. Maybe he is challenging the bowlers but I think its a reaction to an error he has made previously. He is a weird guy. Look how angry he gets when he plays a false shot
