Umpires have been very good on the small amount I have seen. The umpires call thing is so tight and whether they go for or against you you can't really moan.a pair of umpires with slightly less integrity could have made this a really fun game
From commentary and his FC record it does sound like he is a batsman first and spinner 2nd but yeah certainly looks capable of bowling wicket taking deliveries even if it comes with the inconsistency of a non specialist spinner.He really gives it a good rip does Mendis. Length has been a bit all over the place, but something to build on for sure
lolsibley looks like hot trash right now. no way he should be playing in india.
Scary thought. That cover drive he played just now goes to show what a talent he can be on these sort of turners. Against the turn, using his wrists to generate power while keeping the ball down, superb.Got to say I think Buttler is really getting to grips with test match batting now. Just looks very assured at the crease. India will present a much more difficult challenge with their pace attack but he looks good
He misses the last 3 tests in India.Got to say I think Buttler is really getting to grips with test match batting now. Just looks very assured at the crease. India will present a much more difficult challenge with their pace attack but he looks good
The reports I've read suggest this is also down to a lot of work in the nets to correct issues. I hope it's the making of him in Asia. Whilst we've been critical of the openers Crawley got a brute by all accounts today. I still have faith in the top three.Got to say whatever happens from here this is probably Sibley's best test knock, under pressure after 3 failures and he has played very well today in a tense situation.
I still find this daft.He misses the last 3 tests in India.
