Seriously is this kid Australia's savior / next opening batsman?
Let's summarise:
He jumps around the crease.
He can't play the short ball.
He plays front on and jabs at any ball pitched up on off stump. He chases the ball with hard hands.
His best shot is the square cut/slash - let's face it this is the best shot of an under 12's player. Test bowlers don't tend to drop short outside off all day.
This is not a simple reaction to today's dismissal. We need to look elsewhere.
