Played a few nice cover drives and launched a straight sixI can hardly recall Jamie Smith playing a really nice cricket shot.
Seems like ages ago.
Yeah, I agree. A well deserved fifty, imho.Still over 4 an over for the innings
it’s decent bowling imo
On cue: a classic drive to extra cover.Yeah, I agree. A well deserved fifty, imho.
It's just that those drives seem like ages ago.
A batsman having found his rhythm, yet going back into his shell, because the bowling tells him to, is a treat of test cricket.
Pope was playing inside the line and he does that a bit too much for a top order batsmanAm I just harsh but none of Pope, Brook or Woakes got jaffas?
All playing the wrong shot to the delivery. Unexpected turn doesn't make it a jaffa per se.
Good deliveries but not unplayable. The Brook ball was better than Woakes, span much more.Am I just harsh but none of Pope, Brook or Woakes got jaffas?
All playing the wrong shot to the delivery.
As did Brooks.Similar to Brooks dismissal but I feel Woakes didn’t help himself there by not getting forward
England lead by 3
I’d be more lenient to Brook and Woakes, I think they did get jaffas, but all apart from Root and Duckett’s dismissals have been unusual for BazballAm I just harsh but none of Pope, Brook or Woakes got jaffas?
All playing the wrong shot to the delivery.
