Sorry make that 4.

What's wrong with the traditional straight bunt over the top, like Taylor was doing in the last game..? So damn risky

Yeh was just thinking the same thing , if it comes off though everyone loves it . Guess it’s the way he plays , really need a 50 from him though

Yea high time he made some runs.

Meanwhile, we are still yet off the mark.

3 sweeps in this over already from Mire

I wonder if this is a tactic Klusener has been teaching them, or they are just doing their own thing. We have this habit where if something worked well once, we just continue to do it even if it no longer works.

Our best bet is going back to playing with a straight bat. Surely that has to be common sense.

Enjoyed that one?

We're under way.

WHAT A SHOT. Oh boiiiii that was class by hammy

[Andybligzz]

5th time lucky , looks awesome when it comes off.

[foreignfield]

How do you call that? A 'reverse mow'?

[sloandog]

It's risky though, isn't it. I mean he nailed those sweeps in that over, all 5 of them! But only one went for a boundary.
When I bat against a good spinner, I try and bunt it back over his head with a firm base. Easier said than done, granted, but there's less risk and more of a percentage of success.

Anyone know who these commentators are? Absolutely boring and could not give a rats ass
