Yeah and then he got greedy and didn't care enough about being the next Akram. Time to move on from that narrative.Still sad. Was prophecied to be the next Akram.
Yep. Was stranded in the 90s against Australia earlier this year. That was a quality knock too. Deserved a ton.This Bavuma tends to stand up and deliver when the chips are down, doesn't he?
His balls:height ratio is immense.This Bavuma tends to stand up and deliver when the chips are down, doesn't he?
Doesn't seem able to convert fifties into centuries, so a low-scorer where he can get a match-defining 70 or 80 seems his thing.This Bavuma tends to stand up and deliver when the chips are down, doesn't he?
His first test century was on a road to end all roads to be fair.Frankly Bavuma needs to learn how to downhill ski, when the occasional opportunity for big runs is there he has tended to not make full use of it
True, that innings is definitely an exceptionHis first test century was on a road to end all roads to be fair.
This looks like a great test match, highlights were v good. Amazing bowling attacks and wickets falling everywhere. Amidst that, looks a brilliant knock from Babar.
I somehow missed that Steyn only needed one wicket to become SA's highest wicket-taker. Unbelievable gun.
It's "If I can"
Check out 1:03 - 1:07. Does he say "****in" there?
The high number of 100s and big ones was among his hallmarks for Lions when he was picked. It is curious. Perhaps better attacks are better at frustrating him out, because can definitely do silly things when he isn't ticking the score over.Doesn't seem able to convert fifties into centuries, so a low-scorer where he can get a match-defining 70 or 80 seems his thing.
I think his batting tempo is effected at the higher level with better quality. Think last afternoon his batting tempo was very good for the situation in reversing the pressure. There will be tough moments he also needs to get through where he has given it away in the past like you say (mainly against spinners).The high number of 100s and big ones was among his hallmarks for Lions when he was picked.
