Seriously, shaped in, seamed away, clipped the outside of off stump. There is zero shame to getting out to that one.

Kidding yourselves, was a sensational ball. Saying he could have gotten forward is akin to saying he just shouldn't have gotten out to it. Would have cleaned up anyone short of Greg Blewett...who'd have nicked it to slip.
pollard would have sent it to row z tbh

That's why it was a good ball. Found the exact spot where Laxman plays them badly.

Dhoni in against the new ball now, yeahhh
Agreed perfect ball for Laxman... Still would say he didn't play it well.
Seen him bowled out on similar way many times.

Was good ball no doubt, shaped in and then went away a decent amount.

But those type of balls always look better when not played properly. A good front foot stride and it wouldn't have been allowed to swing as much. Probably a perfect delivery for someone like Laxman, but someone like Sachin would have played it much better.
