Wouldn't wish a serious injury on him, but if we can break his arm so he cant bat we might have a chance. Although the way we are batting he could beat us with one arm.
I just watched the highlights on Channel 5, that was some day yesterday. The jousting between Smith and Archer was something else. The game is now evenly poised I think, it can go either way.
What do you think of Smith's dismissal yesterday? Playing no shot it almost looked as though he'd had enough and wanted off.
Strikes me as a bit anomalous where you can have a fully participating replacement for a concussion injury but not for any other?
Yes and they can use them, they take about 40 minutes to fully work so I would get them on early. Don't want to have them 7/8 down and going off for bad light. I would still back the draw personally, but great momentum to take with us even if we don't win.
Because you lazy ****ers don’t post enough detail I’m monitoring it on the Telegraph Good updates “Sun's out again now. Leach bowls to Labuschagne, a full toss first ball after the break, and swept for four. He uses his feet now to drive for one, and a fifty - and that's a really gutsy and impressive knock from the man into the match as a concussion sub. His side were wobbling, and so was he, when Jofra Archer felled him second ball. Here it is then. The last roll of the dice. Jofra Archer is on for a last spell.” Bloody hell...did he get him?
