It’s all to do with his technique though, he’s so far back in the crease he really struggles to score off the front foot through the off side, so he relies heavily on scoring between point and third man, which makes him incredibly vulnerable to getting caught behind the wicket which is what we’re seeing this series.I do wonder why everyone is so wrapped up in the LBW dismissal, he has got out 3/4 times to short balls drawing false shots.
That is great and all but we have seen him nick 1 behind the stumps off a shortish ball he tried to cut, one failed pull shot that went straight up, one lbw decision and a full blooded cut that he was unlucky to be caught from.It’s all to do with his technique though, he’s so far back in the crease he really struggles to score off the front foot through the off side, so he relies heavily on scoring between point and third man, which makes him incredibly vulnerable to getting caught behind the wicket which is what we’re seeing this series.

Played well for his 73 in the odi, to go with his 70-off in the T20, right before his test recall. Don't get the hatred really.
