Moving ball problems Same story once again ! If the ball swings Sri Lanka can't bat. Highly paid coaches,assistant coaches,batting coaches etc have not been able to rectify this. Jayasuriya is hopeless when the ball moves he simply hasn't the technique. The new wicket keeper showed just how inexperienced he is when it comes to batting in test matches and the lower middle order seemed to be in too much of a hurry.
Look at what the Kiwis are doing now. Just waiting for the loose ball and occupying the crease. Also Fleming at 4 to spare him the vagaries of the pitch and the new ball ? Fleming also plays Murali well !
People are saying that it looks like a test match where the captain who wins the toss, loses the match in the first session. I still feel the NZ now have to decide when to declare and then if they don't get a gigantic total have to face Murali on the 4th innings.
A good comparison of Warne and Murali ? |
