He said at the time he hadn't seen a better wicketkeeping display across a series before.
And that's pretty high praise.
So he was terrific in that series.
But, you know, England's theory of...
We can't have guys bowling 75 to 82, 83 mile an hour.
We need big, tall bowlers who bowl 90.
Well, they were undone in Australia by 75 to 83 mile an hour bowlers with a keeper standing up, and they've been done again here in the second Test match.
So, yeah, there's an element of you can go short at them.
Because of that...
And it's not arrogance.
It's because that's the way we want to approach the game type of mentality.
We want to be aggressive.
You know that at some stage, you bowl enough short balls, they'll have a go.
They'll go at you.
And if you get the keeper up, they can't move their feet the same way and they can't get out of their crease in advance and do all the things they want to do.
And that sort of negates or gives you a very good plan against their two best batters.
and that's the key for me.
Matt Henry up against Brook and Root both times, both innings, you know, best on best, and you're trapping them either in the crease, in front, and Brook was caught behind second inning.
So I think other sides will be looking at it and saying, you know, this is how we go against them.
Yeah, we're a little bit tongue-in-cheek here, but we always talk about, you know, there's a lot of talk about Elisa Healy being, you know, Mitch Stark's partner.
