*Official* WTC FINAL Australia vs South Africa 2025

[Burgey]

Huh
What's your definition of a miracle?

Not sure this short and wide delivery plan is great from ngidi.

 

[SeamUp]

2 or 3 drag downs per over from Ngidi.

That can't happen to back up the pressure built.

 

[Qlder]

Only 4 overs for Rabada after lunch. Webster should be relieved

Edit: nope, switched ends

 

[Coronis]

Everytime I hear the phrase wobble seam I want to punch something.

 

[Burgey]

Must say this pitch looks really slow. Not unusual I suppose this early in the English season but there’s a lot of balls dying on their way through. A couple short of a length in this Ngidi over alone have been mistimed

 

[Son Of Coco]

Apparently Ngidi needs to keep his wobble seam delivery "up his arsenal". Sounds uncomfortable.

 

[Burgey]

Not sure this short and wide delivery plan is great from ngidi.

He looks to have no rhythm at all right now. Really struggling to get to the crease

Smith is playing on a different plane. Great 50.

 

[Coronis]

50 and ties Bardsley. Nice

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Good wobble seam ball that one.

 

[Burgey]

Did that single take Smith past Bardsley’s record for most runs at Lord’s by a non-English player?

 

[Coronis]

Apparently Smith gave the ball the full monty. Lucky ball.

 

[Coronis]

Did that single take Smith past Bardsley’s record for most runs at Lord’s by a non-English player?

Yup. Vengarsarkar still has the record for most tons (3) which Smith can tie.

 

[Qlder]

Did that single take Smith past Bardsley’s record for most runs at Lord’s by a non-English player?

Yep, 99 year old record broken

 

[Nintendo]

Did webster nick that???? Swear I heard a noise.

 

[kevinw]

How many times has KG beaten the bat today?

 

[Qlder]

Smith now has 19 runs off 9 balls from Rabada since lunch...why is Webster facing most of his bowling lol

 

[Nintendo]

"That's straight in the nuts" Smith shouts as he cops one right in the family jewel's. Love his mannerisms.
