How India nearly equalled the lbw record

ESPNcricinfo staff24-Sep-2016Ravindra Jadeja constantly attacked the stumps – and pads – with his wicket-to-wicket line•BCCI9.3 – Yadav to Guptill: Trapped in front! Swing. Inswing. Careens into the pads, slipping Guptill’s defences. He fell over again, the front leg planted on middle and off stump. And from that position it is very hard to handle a very quick, full ball darting back into you51.5 – Ashwin to Latham: Goes straight on! These aren’t tricks, folks. This is pure skill from Ashwin. Putting a lot more body into his action, which helps him drift the ball into the left-hander from around the stumps. And that drift happens late. Latham is prodding forward, defending outside the line and his front pad is ripe for attack52.3 – Jadeja to Taylor: Happens all the time in India. All it takes is one strike. Jadeja sneaks in the slider, the news has not reached Taylor’s front pad. He was defending around it, which is never good. At first, it seemed like it may have slid down leg. Off was visible, so was a slight bit of middle. Umpire Kettleborough is confident enough to give him. Then again, it might end up as umpire’s call if DRS was in playR Ashwin threatened with deliveries that turned, and also with ones that slid on with the arm•Associated Press79.1 – Jadeja to Ronchi: Ooof, that looked bad. I was convinced it had hit Ronchi on the full, while he was sweeping a ball that was in line with the stumps. Misses it completely – his shot selection was poor. Umpire Tucker sends him on his way, but it is later that I, at least, realise the ball was not a full toss hitting him on the front pad. It dipped and turned. Hit Ronchi on the back pad after turning quite a bit. May well have missed off stump94.2 – Jadeja to Craig: Traps him in front of middle and off! Given by umpire Kettleborough and he’s bang on. The ball is quite full, and it may have stayed a touch low as well. Craig was trying to flick, and with a closed face of his bat, he hasn’t given himself a chance. Exemplifies the threat Jadeja poses. With his accuracy, all it takes is one ball to misbehave94.3 – Jadeja to Sodhi: Two in two! Another quicker delivery, strikes Sodhi in front of leg stump, and he wasn’t entirely forward either. It may just have straightened enough.
