What is Wood's release?

 

 

 

 

 

Ian bishop said something similar like nobody has release farther from the crease than Bumrah

TBH, i do not buy this vague analysis.  Release depends on the length of the ball.  short balls will be released late, much farther from the body than fuller balls. Comparing Siraj with his position is futile because Siraj does not have braced front leg so does not get into right position for comparison.    

also they are still pictures rather than slow mo video

Bishop said he has not seen anyone releasing the ball that farther from the popping crease.

forget all that, have you seen any spell from him like what Wood did today?

 

Bumrah is more consistent. But Wood was unplayable today

[vvvslaxman]

If there is one guy who can see off that is Root. But every now and then he slices the ball to slips. Only Cummins can produce that.

Bumrah's 6 for 33 was a fiery spell. Most of them beaten for pace. That was on a flatter MCG not Leeds.

Damn. That back cut from Root is vintage stuff. Glorious. Very rare to see players playing this shot

[vvvslaxman]

Nithin Menon not buying it.

[vvvslaxman]

Root dropped a couple rarely this match which cost them about 70 to 80 runs. While we are at it Can you tell me whether this was taken by Lohli?

that was great but not intimidating. Today was Mitch Johnson 2013-14 Ashes stuff

Fraud Brook has been found out- this is what happens when you pick T20 players for Test matches.

 

they didn’t learn from India

Nothing can beat MItch series. He literally bullied even great short ball player like Kevin Pietersen. All these guys we bullied in Australia with short stuff by Indians too. Current Aussie team is very conservative unlike in the past.  Mitch Marsh smashed wood's 95 mph stuff all over the park. Others were too timid to take him on. 

[vvvslaxman]

If they want  to play bazball against any bowler here is your guy. Marsh is a perfectly targetable pie chucker.

[Frustrated]

Marsh scores a match winning century.  And then immediately picks up an imp wicket.  Everything he touches turns Gold....

[vvvslaxman]

Losing a wicket to marsh is a crime lol wow.

This is his day.

I cannot believe how Crawely is a regular with this zero footwork technique.
