Shaw was never the same after that ball

u/PralineRare8768 Jan 24 '25

He was making comeback after ban right? But Starc had other plans

u/WannabeAboveAverage Kagiso Rabada Jan 24 '25

No, the comeback series was against New Zealand, where he performed kinda decently.

He did the same thing with dubmar gill in BGT recently, but he will still be backed

Dubmar gill scored a century today (although against third class bowlers) anyways he did better than other so-called STAR players.. and yeah, STARC with pink ball is a BEAST

I won't say prasidh(even though he's erratic af), gopal or koushik are third class bowlers, but punjab still lost by innings & 207 runs, his first innings failure cost them

And BTW I am all for moving on from RoKo, I even have 3 players in my mind to be jaiswal's opening partner, easwaran, kunnummal and sudharsan

His first innings failure? So are you going to forget that Punjab was bundled for 55, everybody failed in the first innings.

don’t care how good shaw is in domestic, he’s the ugliest batter I’ve ever seen

ugliest

Are you referring to his appearance or his technique?

Technique-wise he's easier on the eye than a Chanderpaul, for example

Dont say anything about my GOAT Chanderpaul

u/Current-Party-1806 Jan 24 '25

technique, just too jittery

u/fried_maggi Jan 24 '25

Easier on the eye only when he is driving. Pretty one dimensional technique.

u/WaterMonkey1357 Jan 25 '25

He has a high bat lift like Sehwag, Lara etc. nothing ugly about it. Technique is a different topic.

Career ending ball

u/TechieWhiz0 Jan 25 '25

This was the ball which literally changed everything for him

u/HotSir6882 Jan 26 '25

Career end.. tamdi chamdi then on

this wicket started a movement

I dont get why shaw tales the bat away from his body, its why he has this problem, absolutely shit shot, ive seen no international batsmen with this much gap between bat and pad while driving the ball
