I expect Carty to be more technical, especially if he is to thrive at 3 in test.

this time he tapped his left foot down the porch, the ball was closer. His head and his body was over the ball. It was a beautiful drive

Something called nerves but yes early up on his innings he is leaden footed and plays away from his body.

Well! Our batting will not be good until Carty is good at test.
