Really have to set a field for one side of the wicket here. At least force the batsmen to take some risks.

I like the idea of having a third man or a deep point, but this is seriously weird.

It's almost like Cummins has thought "hmm how do we counter this Crawley dominance?" and come up with a funky plan even though he averages <30 against the standard methods that have always been used against him and he was on about 10 at the time.

Australia totally spooked by the mythology of something that hasn't really happened yet.

If Lyon bowls full on off-stump around the wicket they're more likely to play the reverse with the angle. I think it's a good move.
