4th test Manchester


Sad to see the legend that is Jimmy look so far off the pace. Really could have done with that edge of Smith carrying to Root.
He isn’t as fast as he was, but unless there is variable bounce it’s the slipper’s job to position himself for the carry as it is not the bowlers job to bowl to the slip’s position.

Slip fielders, especially first slip, normally take up their position based on where the keeper is standing as he/she is in the best position to judge the 'carry'.

That’s the length moeen needs to find here

I know he is nowhere near Swann but he can bowl the odd magic delivery
