That over to Steve Smith was the thing of folklore! They will be talking about it for Years to come! Then to follow it up with Carey's Head blow then dismissal!
Pad up, Sudden! Aljo got some sweetness for you lol!

Then, Alzarri Joseph turned up the throttle against Steven Smith with a spell where he touched 147kph and produced the fastest over by a West Indies bowler in the series.

Beau Webster was defeated by late movement from Alzarri Joseph, on a virtually unplayable delivery, and Alex Carey edged a wild drive to slip two balls after being clanged on the helmet by a bouncer that necessitated repair work on it. Carey's stroke was one of a batter not backing their chances of hanging around.

Pat Cummins should have been his 4th had WI claimed the catch.

It compares to Holding bowling to Boycott.

Aljo has smiled many times what we want is consistency and Maturity! It perhaps better compares to Archer/Smith although that was a fight not a surrender. What worked is that Josephs finally bowled well directed bouncers not just short-pitched crap. I mentioned that at Brisbane key man Head was batting legs identical of the ball because Shamar's pace and the Kawaja blow scared him. Yes Smith was, ruffled, frightened and plainly scared.

there is a mango variety developed in Florida called Sweet Tart. as the name suggests, it is decadently sweet with notes of tartness to balance it out.
once in a blue moon you may get one that is so tart it is unpalatable
perhaps we should call AlJo, "Sweet Tart"

Only difference is Steve Smith is a better batsman than Boycott ever was.

As a big critic of Alz Joseph I must say that he has really improved this series. He has been impressive and shown good improvement.

If OT showed up, I doubt whether there would be enough of that ackee and saltfish to go around.

Alzarri Joseph to Hazlewood, OUT
A second five-wicket haul in Test cricket for Alzarri Joseph. Such an inspired spell of fast bowling and this is a deserved haul, his best figures in Test cricket. He spears it full and straight on middle, 136.5kph, Hazlewood hangs back but tries to keep it out, in vain. Australia bowled out for 121, their lowest total against West Indies since 1995, inside 45 minutes on the third day
The Man from WADADLI!
