Burgey

Marnus has had his share of luck (again), but this is disturbingly ominous from Smith. Haven’t seen him this assured in a test knock in a couple of years

*cue spooning one to mid off or whatever

Well yesterday or day before yesterday in press conference he said that the last time he felt so good while batting was against IND in 2014/15 and WC 2015.

Smith is an atg

Incredibly rare to see a player overhaul their game in a matter of months and be able to stick to the changes when under pressure

Usually old habits creep in

anyways congrats to holder for going at less than two an over while other bowlers can't build pressure what so ever

I don't think our seamers have bowled badly at all tbh. This has been a very good pitch (not at all up to the pre-match hype), Marnus had a lot of luck and Smith looks unreal.

But wow Chase is a wasted space in the side. No control whatsoever. Terrible selection laid bare for all to see.

i'm of the opinion that when you're getting kersplunked after bowling eighty overs in the field on a hot day with two set batsman you're likely to absolutely cop it if you take the 2NB
That's a massive stretch but I can see the thin thread of logic to it

Not taking the new ball would be exactly what the Aus batters would want

tbf when the other option is continuing with chase rather than seeing if mayers or something can sneak through with the old ball its still dumb as, even on my perverse thinking

flem isn't talking about how laid back brathwaite is at the moment if he looks like haseeb hameed pass it on tbh
