*Official* Australia tour of New Zealand Feb-Mar 2024

[Spark]

Terrible from smith. Still on the move at release.

Yeah this is technically the worst he looked, well, in a decade maybe. Has lost off peg completely

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Matt henry is the goat

 

[ashley bach]

Umpires call on impact at worst I think

Henry 1-7 after 7.1 @SillyCowCorner1

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

That ridiculous technique is always an lbw waiting to happen.

 

[SteveNZ]

**** me that's a good ball. Wobble seam that hits the strings and swings in after it lands

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Henry 1-7 after 7.1 @SillyCowCorner1

Smith dismissed at 5:05pm

 

[Flem274*]

Smith gets out like that so much now

Yeah he's almost 35 so the eye will begin to go a bit/ Just something he needs to be aware of and watch for. Opening doesn't help the issue but overall he helps the team.

 

[Dick Rockett]

Man, I never get tired of Steve Smith's "fund manager's kid who just found out he can't borrow the BMW tonight" face

 

[SteveNZ]

That ridiculous technique is always an lbw waiting to happen.

That's a nuts ball to expose it though. If it doesn't swing after it hits the seam it probably hits him outside off

 

[ashley bach]

That's too good for Marnus

It's his movement across the crease. He literally cannot reach some of these balls on middle stump because he's moved so far outside the line of the ball. It's a good nut but from that line, any movement in and he's in huge trouble

That ridiculous technique is always an lbw waiting to happen.

Bowlers thought that for years, and it rarely worked until recently.

The new ball will always swing more than batting 4, and he’s struggling with it.

The Smith experiment has failed.

 

[Nintendo]

I really don't understand why this season he's gone like three miles across his crease to the point where he's missing balls on off stump because he can't reach them

He needs to go back and watch some highlights from the last home summer vs SA And WI. His trigger movement was way less exaggerated there and wasn't walking across nearly as far.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

Wow haven't heard a NZ Test crowd get this fired up for donkeys ears. Except maybe the 1 run win.

He didn't move this far across last summer

 

[Burgey]

Off the mark with an on drive is always good areas.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Henry is giving me the heeby-jeebies as a certain Dale Steyn

 

[King Kane]

Henry bowling hand grenades.

Henry 1-11 @SillyCowCorner1

Not much happens there tbf
