Who doesn't ? Why do you think captains choose to have slips cordons ? |
Not for ducks...
We've been over this before... As Lazza (IIRC) said last time, everyone can nick it, but some nick it more than others!!
At one time, Ch. 9 told us 11 of Khawaja's previous 13 dismissals against England were nicking off to the slips cordon. That was before his recall to the team for the cheap, cheap centuries at the SCG with its shameful dead pitch, when Head was ill. But even in that game, on a century, on a dead pitch, Khawaja inside edged on to his stumps, didn't he?!
Of course the next Test was the pink-ball Tassie Test. The BBL commentators were joking that, with Head returning, Khawaja was not really volunteering to open. The BBL guys make everything a joke, but there's a serious point there. He's a nicker, so opening against the pink ball...
It's also like FTB Smith being LBW swiping across the line of the ball to legside. Everyone can get out LBW swiping across the line, but some do it more than others (but are saved by playing on dead pitches with no sideways movement).

After all, it's only the World Test Championship final
The RL match finishes in about 15 minutes. Fingers crossed. _________________ Donny.

But I don't get why you can't stream Ch.7 on the internet, Donny.
Is your internet too slow? |

Scroll down a bit and to the right there's the cricket. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

I won't labour the point, but I am ...
If you can get ABC internet audio streaming, why not Ch. 7 internet video streaming? |

That must be another error because we all know that "FTB" can only make runs on "roads" - after all, he only averages a paltry 62.82 in England because he is just useless against the moving ball. |
Is that 31 test centuries now? That's a fkn lot of roads he's batted on.
Head out for 163, Aus 4-365 |
The really unfair thing is how often the wicket is difficult for others, then turns into a "road" when Smith comes to the crease - and then suddenly gets difficult again when he goes out. You only have to watch him bat to know it can't be him - it's just been a decade of lucky, favourable conditions. |
