Cricket Part III

See ya!

Mitch could really do a number on 8-11 here. One of the best at dismissing the lower order in quick time.

Or an off-spinner could take 10 fer in Perth.

As long as he dents a helmet or two on the way.

The fact that Pant is refusing singles at 6 down shows how bad their lower order is. They have 4 genuine #11 bats in the line-up.

Interesting field placement.

Lyon gets a red card for a studs up, two-footed challenge on Marcus Harris. Potential leg breaker!

I think you could bring both those men behind point in a third of the way.

I spent the whole last session going, awwwwww.
And it hasnā€™t improved today.

That first one was wasted on Umesh.
A better batsman would have tried to play it.

Marvellous.

GOAT strikes. Pant couldnā€™t resist. A wild swipe to mid-wicket and an excellent catch from Handscomb.

7/137.

GOAT Time.

I think Starc might be remembering a few balls he copped from Umesh last innings.

Byeeeee.

Perfectly done. Hurt him, make him back away, get him out.

Do it to this bloke too. And the next.

Cricbuzz notes that Pant told Yadav (not the other way around) to ā€œat least take a startā€ (in Hindi) after Yadav refused a single.
