I dont wanna write off a youngster just yet. But I remember when Bumrah first rose to prominence, all he had was the yorkers and the slower ones. But he learned to get good with the new ball, with swing, seam, bouncers, knuckle balls, reverse swing and even learned how to bowl dry, hard lengths, full lengths etc etc.

I dunno how much longer Prasidh has but if he does not get better, he wont even make it to his franchise sides soon.

Amazing knock by Maxi. Too bad it relegated a super innings from Rutu.
It's not even about not having variety. Where will he get the control from? He can have 100 varieties but if can't execute what's the point?
Absolute basics is missing no point focusing on the next level.
It's not like you are defending 8 runs and you need every ball executed perfectly. When 2 out of 6 balls executed perfectly would've sealed it, if you can't even deliver that playing for your country, I don't know what can be expected of this loser.

Is that what the law states though?


This does not seem to be enough to call based on how its worded in that article.
27.3 Position of wicket-keeper

27.3.1
The wicket-keeper shall remain wholly behind the wicket at the striker’s end from the moment the ball comes into play until a ball delivered by the bowler touches the bat or person of the striker or passes the wicket at the striker’s end or the striker attempts a run.

Yeah but it seems a touch harsh to literally give it on an inch esp. based on a 2D camera angle.

Anyways, I hope we play the side I posted earlier for the next game. Its like we are intent to learn nothing that will actually be useful for us in future tournaments based on us playing the same 4 #11 and 6 batsman and 1 AR template. :(

It's been a quietly fun little series meaningless as it is. You could be doing less productive things with your time like actually working at work for eg

International Regular
Yeah Maxwell ..He's kind of like a legend now isn't he ? Not the conventional legend , but 3 World Cup wins and pulling out near impossible victories outta nowhere in the space of a month is just unbelievable..

He's one player whom stats will never tell you how mercurial he was when his playing days are done

his strike rate is elite enough to tell the story

He is a slightly smarter version of Shahid Afridi

Which still makes him prone to regular brain fades
