Ah! Bad way to get out there, not much of an asking rate, why would you do that?

K-long looks like his game plan is just to hit every ball as hard as he can.

When he does, he often loses his shape. His head is not still and that means the ball can go anywhere. He would improve his game significantly if he worked on just playing the ball on merit, and moving it around the pitch. He has the power, so there is no worry that he can't clear the rope. Improve the other parts, and the big hits will become more regular.

He's not playing the ball on merit and that's why he hasn't really kicked on in his career.

Why would even do that. Things were going so well.

Good to see K long improvement . But the bowl he got stumped was doosra which is baned in Cricket and is being delivered by a bowler who was baned from bowling few years ago.

Burl in to bat. Opportunity here for him to show he can bat when the team is in a somewhat comfortable position.

Ervine gone. By this point it's a surprise if a wicket doesn't fall within three balls of a wicket.
