tbf he's created his own luck by flashing so hard

Doesn't hurt when you have a tree trunk for a bat. The philander one and the ball that missed the stumps would've been a different story on a bad day.

The other blokes aren't using tooth picks, it's just Darsh is making it look that way.

 

[TheJediBrah]

It depends on the wicket as well maybe? You can't be doing this on a wicket with not much bounce I feel.

I've only ever played in Australia and other than being caught at third man a few times I've gotten a way with swinging wildly to balls outside off my whole life

But yeah I wouldn't know how a similar tactic would work in Asia, for example

 

[Starfighter]

Okay Kevin, we've got the point.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

How about that 5-0 in the ODI's?... the good old days.

Can't do it. They open with spinners there

Yep, you need a real technique to do well there.

 

[mr_mister]

I'm enjoying Kevin's commentary tbqh

 

[NUFAN]

Speaking of spin I would give Maharaj an over or two in tandem with Philander.

 

[indiaholic]

What? It is garbage.

 

[Burgey]

Yep, you need a real technique to do well there.

The classic technique of MS Dhoni immediately springs to mind.

Ok, Piers

 

[SeamUp]

Putting us to the sword and rightly so.

Australia first of all bowled far better and their batsman will have an easier time if we continue to bowl like we are now.

 

[Red Wingz]

Once he gets going warner looks like the right handed sehwag.......Total destruction

Nah he was just fed with rubbish bowling from touring spinners like Lyon

Yeah but with a bit more footwork.

 

[mr_mister]

i like all conversational commentary dunno why it's so hated on

[GotSpin]

I've enjoyed the commentary a lot more today than normal

 

[Starfighter]

Aaaaand a long hop to ruin a good over.

 

[Burgey]

Indeed. Ashwin Syndrome, they call it
