I completely agree.

And I think heading into these innings, the question over Jacob Bethel was whether he was Gary Sobers or Sean Marsh.

They were his only options.

And...

The Sobers prophecy rings true today.

Such an accomplished innings.

It was class.

Even when he was on 99, where he stayed for a few balls, the palpable tension was there, the correct camera panning was happening.

The conversation about how dad was feeling was there, even though I swear mum, and it was mum, confirmed, looked every bit as nervous as his dad.

But there are fewer stories about rum and cokes, I suppose.

Even when he was on 99, he looked comfortable.

He looked like he was just waiting for his moment.

He had some serious ice in those veins today.

I felt like...

Even Harry Brooke batted properly in the 90s because he probably just wanted to be there and not make it harder for him.

It's like he had an actual reason to play that didn't bore him.

Um, and, uh, and then seeing like seeing his dad in tears, the family, um, you know, brought into each other.

It's good.

It's, it's very, very good gear.

And with his innings, he didn't impose.
