Marnus Labuschagne recreating spinning conditions in the backyard


Recommended Posts

Rank turners should be banned as they are prepared by keeping the pitch unprepared … It is not cricket and therefore not surprised to see their use in countries like India

Haydos did that prior to 2001 tour. Had a successful series. But he scruffed up the surface to recreate. Preparations are key to overseas tour. Tendulkar used to bat against wet tennis ball from 15 yards before Australian tours.

You play spin of the back foot unless the ball is full

Not with that footwork, a quicker/straighter one from Jadeja or Axar will end him quickly!

You have to play Jaddu mostly on back foot anyways.  Use depth of the crease against him as he doesn't flight the ball.  

Against Axar who I think varies pace u need a solid front foot defence which most Aussie players always have.

Aussies try an create sub continent conditions down under, but the bottom line, is that the heat, humidity, pressure and slow turners are hard to create in back yard cricket.

He does use it from time to time, you could use that against him before 2016/17 but in that home season he clearly showed he could bowl on any surface. Where he lacks is generally the amount of turn & of course his height - tall bowlers in cricket have always had some form of advantage or the other whether bounce or even turn.

I think this guy will be exposed in subcontinent. He is a highly overrated batsman, a Steve Smith wannabe. 

 

He wont, he definitely can bat.

Probably 12-14 mm glass.
