Jamie Smith’s dismissal has irked readers into an email or two. Here are a few:
“Absolutely fewmin (as the kids say) about that Smith dismissal, writes Dave Espley. “Brainless cricket cost us a win in Perth (and a series-changing 1-0 lead) and it seems some of us have learned nothing. I’m a huge fan of Bazball as it’s transformed English cricket largely for the better in the last few years, but Bazball with a brain, please. Brainless Bazball is the worst.”
“That must be the worst Test dismissal I have ever seen. I have no words.” Flabbergasted and tired Reuben from London.
And Rowan Sweeney. “Let’s just all agree to switch bowler and fielder on that one eh? Boland would feel better, Smith would feel better, even Marnus might feel better.
Repeat after me: “Boland serves an absolute jaffa that Smith did well to nick, and Marnus took another blinder”
