Can Alex Carey please not reverse sweep with target so close

 

[IKnowtheDog]

That is a Jaffa, Aussies really struggling here against spin

 

[Westend]

Would of been a great opportunity to have green up the order today

 

[Westend]

Can Alex Carey please not reverse sweep with target so close

Lol

I know annoys me

He’s not going to change

Batted well today. Classy

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Good effort to chase this down, and for most of the players to contribute. Tough deck against some talented spinners.

DRS amateur hour

Can Alex Carey please not reverse sweep with target so close

Why?

Genuine scoring option, as much as a cover drive

He practices it, it’s risk reward is worth it

 

[Westend]

Shot greenie

Just being so close to the target and with his eye didn't want to risk a new batter.

Have no problem with the shot and if he practices that's fine too, he was mistiming a few and I just didn't want to see him dismissed after batting so well on a difficult pitch.

Touching to see Aussie players doing a lap of honour to a cheering crowd dressed in yellow and full of Australian flags. Superb scenes

Seems a lot of effort for just a single. He’s better playing through the V and driving the ball

 

[HODGEYROAD]

At least we didn't end the series with 4 consecutive defeats.
