If Australia had bowled first I suspect that India would've been all out for 150. The Aussie bowlers have extracted far more life from the pitch and it's not even as bowler friendly now.
That arm guard doing a fine imitation of a bolt on a stable door.....
Bottom arm, no one wears one there.
Jarrod Kimber thinks he improved dramatically after learning how to bowl the 'wobble ball' but he attributes basically everything to that so I kind of take it with a grain of salt.
TBF Kimber explained this as him experimenting with the wobble ball in the 2019/2020 season during siddle's last year at victoria, no?
Yeah Boland was a good Shield bowler prior to 2021 but he was just that, and looked pretty ordinary in the ODI's he played. Even in the first innings I was thinking he wasn't good enough for Tests.
Yeah I pretty much ignore Kimber+wobble-ball as an explanation for anything these days because he's become a total meme on that front.
Why does India not give Sanju Samson more chances ?
Because there is no god father for him.
Never been a good limited overs bowler. Was brought into the test squad when he took a seven-for in the Shield, wasn't picked, and then selected for a whole bunch of ODIs for some reason.
A lot of writers - and indeed bowlers - have. Don't remember hearing too much about the wonders of it when Shahid Nazir was bowling them.
