Yeah he was lucky.
There was another cricketer from Zim ...Mark Vermullen something. He too was hit on head by Irfan's bouncer and hospitalized seriously. But recovered.
Later there were news that he lost his mental balance post that bouncer, was involved in arsonary as well.

I wonder how Jimmy is doing after getting hit on head so many times and with multiple skull fractures.He was the most courageous batsman from India.

 

Getting hit on head is no easy thing to recover from, it has long lasting effects.

Started well

SRH literally stole Head for so low price. Deserves 20 CR

[rageaddict]

Phattu Head gone, can only show Daleri while chasing 240-250 scores on toss oriented pitches. Unlucky India !!!

I can never decide who my favorite bowler between Jofra and Bumrah. 

 

Healthy Jofra Archer is lethal. Simple, easy-to-the-eye run up, bowling action and follow through may create the illusion that the speed would be a 125k. But the ball comes out like a sniper at 149. Add the range of movement he generates both in the air and off the deck. Exceptional bowler.

That's what pressure of a big target does to a team, no way Australia would collapse in this manner if they were batting first. 

 

Any bowler can turn into a Babbar Sher (  like Mohammed Amir ) when their batters have set up  335+ runs on  board in the final of a tournament..

Jofra is not an all condition bowler. He needs a bit of help. OUt here Lords slope is something he can take advantage of

Statistically Archer is not in the same league as Bumrah. 

 

I think if he stayed healthy and played more LOIs, he could do well outside of England.

The T20 series ended with 1-1 (Final match washed out).   ODI series is now 2-2.  Hopefully the Final doesn't get washed out.  

[Frustrated]

When was the last time Aus lost an ODI match by a margin of 200 runs?

It will get washed out. rain all day at Bristol on Sunday 

[putrevus]

Archer does not look the same.

[Lord]

Bazball collapsed from 200-2 to 250-7

[Frustrated]

Just like the T20 series, this ODI series will also end with NR.   Rain has started and there is no chance of it stopping anytime soon.  (As per cricinfo).  

[Frustrated]

Last few encounters between Aus & Eng.     Ashes 2023: NR.   T20 series: NR.    ODI series: NR (likely).    What an awesome rivalry this has been?  LOL No winner No loser.
