I know it's a very flat pitch, but playing a wristy uppercut away from your body, when you've been at the crease for fewer than 30 deliveries and your opening partner has just been dismissed is risky and reckless, especially when he score boundaries easily enough by thumping poor balls through the covers. Dunno, it's brilliant to watch but I wouldn't necessarily call it good batting in the purest sense.
Yeah first ball too. Just can't escape the feeling that one away or the other he's trying to make a point with this innings.
i suppose it's worth noting that baz once played with hughes. just the one time iirc.
We are both talking about Brendon McCullum here right? Have you seen his dismissals from the first 2 test? If anything his ramp shot over the slips was a darned-sight more calculated than his pull shots straight down deep mid-wicket's throat in the first couple of tests.
Ramiz & Basit Ali I think
yeah so ugly. He'll take wickets too and then be banned.
It was Chishti. Now it's Ramiz Raja. Gee he's an idiot. Basit Ali isn't bad though.
