Ranking our top 6 v spin

Root
Duckett
Brook
Crawley
Stokes
Pope

 

[Chin Music]

Cricinfo says his average is 30.07.

Which is way worse than I thought it was.

Will have dropped under 30 with the fist innings failure. Even so, you would want him averaging closer to 35. Crawley is looking all over the place. And out.

 

[BazBall21]

Not a great innings from Crawley that.

 

[Howe_zat]

Chris Gayle
Tillakaratne Dilshan
Sachin Tendulkar
Kevin Pietersen
Marcus Trescothick

A short list of players whose ODI strike rate was lower than Ben Duckett's test strike rate.

 

[Chubb]

That was an extremely poor shot.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

I maybe mistimed creating that other thread.

 

[Groundking]

Pretty abysmal from Crawley, could be in a touch of trouble here if Pope once again proves his ineptness vs spin.

 

[Molehill]

Not a great innings from Crawley that.

Nope, 27 considering he could've been out about 4 times is not bad!!

 

[King Kane]

Crawley's luck runs out.

Pope needs a score after being a passenger in the first test.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Not a great innings from Crawley that.

Looked like I presumed he would last week. A bloke who hadn't played in ages

 

[Starfighter]

Even if it wasn't very difficult to bowl to, disruptive batting, I don't think any of these bowlers could maintain a consistent line or length. Sajid didn't in Australia.

 

[Silver Silva]

Duckett is amazing

 

[BazBall21]

Brilliant 50. Good range v spin on this man.

This is a pitch where Root really needs to not get sucked into trying to bat more aggressively than his natural tempo. Don't see how he can get out here if he plays normally unless he gets a rank shooter.

Needs to tuck in for bed and breakfast.

He needs to play like how he did when he got a double hundred in SL , was a clinic on how to play the sweep shot

Was thinking the same, he could easily bat for a day again here......which will surely put the mockers on him.

Outside of his swashbuckling 154 Pope has failed to get to 20 on the other 6 occasions this season.

Sajid's action is happening too quickly for me to guage on my shitty stream but does he like just not use his non-bowling arm at all?

Looks set up to be like frog in a blender was for South Africa then the other arm doesn't move.
