14-6 - a brute of a ball from Morkel

GingerFurball · 05-05-2010, 05:03 PM

If this was boxing, the referee would have stopped the fight.

King Pietersen · 05-05-2010, 05:04 PM

Morne's enjoying this, as I expected he would. Pace and bounce against this calibre of batting is just destructive. Welcome to International cricket lads!

GingerFurball · 05-05-2010, 05:04 PM

If Fat Grey had taken my 10 man slip cordon advice, that would have been 5 for Morkel.

Yep but it may be that that would seem unnecessarily disrespectful tbf

TT Boy · 05-05-2010, 05:05 PM

Well played. Got on top of the bounce.

GingerFurball · 05-05-2010, 05:06 PM

Awesome.

King Pietersen · 05-05-2010, 05:06 PM

Morkel hit for 6 off a free-hit. Awesome stuff. Least they're going to get more than 20!

zaremba · 05-05-2010, 05:07 PM

and that brings the 20 up

TT Boy · 05-05-2010, 05:07 PM

Morkel you dick.

GraemeSmith · 05-05-2010, 05:07 PM

What a shot! This is how they should play every ball. Think of everyball as a freehit.

Noble One · 05-05-2010, 05:07 PM

Cannot place too much blame on Afghanistan for crumbling like this. Just months ago they were facing the endless stream of associate nation medium pacers and looping off-spinners, now they face up to 145+ KMH international class quicks.

Bowlers and fielders have proven some talent exists in Afghanistan, all they need now is more exposure to quality international teams.

Sir Alex · 05-05-2010, 05:07 PM

Yeah quite, and I think that everyone would agree. And it's particularly harsh on Afghanistan to face these sorts of bowlers for the first time in these conditions. Morkel under lights on a bouncy pitch is a particularly unpleasant proposition

Lovely shot. Shades of Alec Stewart.
