Never seen such fu**s like that in that period when 8 wickets down. You kidding yourself to think others in same period did the same with such a tailender.
Remember Border brilliant effort with Thomson the decade before where he did what a middle order bat should do and try to milk the strike and get most of runs at same time. Martyn did everything wrong and opposite to what you should and the most complete fu** up I ever seen in similar circumstances.
There is only one way that a team GETS 8 wickets down.
Why do the players who made that happen get assauged of responsibility?
its Like blaming the second change bowler for letting a team win from 8-down needing 100, and they come on and give away the last 15 runs in one over. Did they screw up? Yes. Was the result THEIR fault and theirs alone? No way
