That looked a good pick up shot until he hit it down the guy's throat. Not really on early on in the innings if you're backing yourself to clear the boundary. Pity, he was looking in good touch.
I have a feeling Donald is going to see Saul make some runs today, he's due.

Cheats is being polite.
William mashinge said he had to be held back off the pitch from smacking Paul. It was disgraceful

Which Bennett is the best? The one currently batting looks like he has so much time but looks a bit wooden? Reminds me of BT a little bit back in 2006

49-2 off 11. These lads make batting look exceptionally easy

This is BB. He's had an amazing tournament. Looks so good. He's got really good hands. Just eases it into gaps, doesn't try and hit it too hard. He's going to be really good. And the big thing is he thinks, doesn't seem to feel the pressure.
DB looks a bit more punchy, with harder hands, but not far off. I always thought DB was the one to watch moving forward, but BB has been really impressive.

Talented set of lads. Be nice to see Welch and Falao in a franchise squad

I think DB used to be considered a marginally better prospect than his brother , but looks like BB has developed remarkably well the last year or two. Looks a fantastic prospect. A competent country would be offering him literally whatever he demands to stay in the system after this tournament.

Not convinced that carried at all
Remember when these cheats mankaded us
Tbh am support mankading.it's batsman duty to follow rules. If bowler gets penalised for overstepping the batsman should stay behind crease too.

I've seen BB play a few times and never realised he had so much time. DB struggles a bit more against pace.
The guy with the most time and best timing is Welch, but just invents ways of going out, getting a lot better, but just needs to work on shot selection and working the ball around. He's 4, 6 or dot. He seems to now be comfortable with the dots, which used to put him under pressure, now needs to work on rotating strike. None of these guys seem comfortable with sweeping, especially Welch, but its early days, you can work on sweeps, it's a low percentage shot unless you've hit thousands in practice.
Saul is a great puller.
