Curran gets the customary jaffer. Not one of our bowlers bowled a single delivery like that one :lol:

Welch undone by a good one as well. Straight thru the gate. That's happened a few times. Got a glitch there

I have to be honest. I'm not 100% convinced by his technique yet. Looks more like a white ball player to me. Still early days of course. It can't always be a good ball that dismisses him every time. In this format against the better sides, you need to to expect a good ball more often than not.

In fact our top 3 have some suspect techniques. Ben seems to have that grit about him to grind it out. Bennett is just one of those guys who despite not moving his feet much, you have to get him out early. Early in the innings, early in the day, early in your spell etc. If he gets used to the bowling he feasts

So Raza signed for MLC, and that tournament clashes with the Zimbabwe Test series against South Africa. The MLC final is slated for July 14, which is exactly the date Tri series starts in Zimbabwe. So, will Raza only participate in selected marquee matches of Zimbabwe?

It’s ridiculous. Bro is still in Pakistan, will rock up in England next week and play the test with no acclimatisation to the freezing conditions and no warm up against the dukes ball :lol:
