Law 41.10 and it would be 5 penalty runs to the fielding side, not runs off the batting sideThe batsmen need to have runs taken off their scores for all their time wasting. Watching the Bang vs WI match even when the spinners were bowling they weren't making 15 an hours because the bowler was spending five minutes at the end of their run while the guy on strike fiddled with his bat handle.
This is an acceptable answer for Ser Rodk's "Basic Questions" threadI have seen Sharma batter some world class bowling attacks of the years he could do that in test cricket if he focus
I thought the pitch had a bit in it early tbh. Did a bit off the seam and was nothing like old Adelaide pancake sort of stuff.Getting convinced about India's batting frailty away from home now. Even though they failed in SA and Eng I put that down to challenging pitches and thought they'd be alright on our flat decks. Maybe they are just crap at batting away. Anyway they could still recover. Even though he's out India should always be a chance of big score i this series because they have Kohli.
... Just imagine if they had to do without him and say Pujara as well as Shaw. (Just leaving that comment as a trap to see if I can catch any cretins that don't understand analogies. Its about 2am in England now. I'll come back in a few hours to see if I've trapped anything).
The point is that to make the batsmen stop it needs to affect them personally.Law 41.10 and it would be 5 penalty runs to the fielding side, not runs off the batting side
