That’s like saying Dustin Martin is so much better than Trent cotchin.
Cheers, surprising as the few times I’ve seen him last more than a couple of overs he’s always been an aggressive and attacking batsman.

No it won’t
Konstas being bottom hand dominant will always be vulnerable to ball coming back in. Whether he looks to change something so fundamental as his grip will be an interesting watch.
Also one of the few international batters without a trigger movement - not saying that’s a technical flaw (tendulkar didn’t have one and he is the closest I have seen to technical perfection) just against the grain.

being not as good as a guy averaging 19 for his career doesn’t make you a fraud when you have 370+ at 27
I know I'm an old coot who doesn't understand the game any more, but there was a time where you wouldn't get near the top six of a Shield team without a fairly solid defence. Everything else might be a bit dodgy, or absent, but that would be there.
Its not the modern way though, leaving yourself room to hit it through off seems to be given priority and closing that gap when defending is left to learn at professional levels.
He's only 19??? you could've knocked me over with a feather

Pitch not looking like a road so far today.
Haha nice appeal Deep. Ran through sad it didn't carry, then went nuts when he realised he could appeal for the lbw

Deep isn't bowling too badly either, unlucky not to have a wicket yet.
You'll regret that when Isha is commentating the Poms next summer.. As biased and one eyed as they come
Kohli copying his idol
I reckon Konstas will follow the usual path of Australian bats that end up having a solid career. Make a series of low scores, get dropped and go back to shield to work on some things then come back a more well rounded player.
Not for me if O’Keefe’s still on. Although Fleming is hyper irritating with his “avenue of apprehension” and other hackneyed sayings.

I reckon Siraj will be very dangerous today
Kohli has always been an Indian Warner. Being an utter twat on field almost seems to be part of his role in the team. Much better player than Davey though.
Bumrah always smiling out there, no matter how many times he beats that bat. There must be something that pisses him off, would like to know what it is.
Show how shit Starc bowled with the new ball, Boland came on and show something. Need to see how the old ball behave on this pitch.

Way too short in general but has some cracking deliveries. It’s a loss Shami isn’t in the side as Deep would be that perfect 3rd banana first change
