Ausage
Cricketer Of The Year
My first thought was that the goal was being overrated somewhat, but after watching it a few more times it's clear it's pretty special. It's easy to blame Cech but his instincts were sending him top right. You can see him start to move that way and the ball dips and moves back ridiculously quickly, ending up the exact opposite side of the goal. All in half a second he's thinking "it's going top right, top mid, top left, oh wait it ended up mid left." It's hard to think of a shot I'd like to face less than that as a keeper which is saying something.
I don't think you ever mean for something like that to happen, but I don't think that really matters. We'll never know if he meant it anyway.
