I'm not watching but was it a ball that would've/could've taken a wicket under any circumstance?

@BrerzerK

Very good delivery. Ball pitched just inside leg and turned into middle-stump. Not out as the ump and i thought it pitched outside leg.

He played well up to that point.

Certainly not unplayable leg break but he missed it ...plumb lbw!

Standard leggy. Just not enough practice against legspin maybe. He gets out to run of the mill deliveries a lot.

It was danger period for Erdrich…no scapegoat for this innings

I watch some of King's batting today.

While he has started to play the ball later than before,

he still has the issue of pushing his front leg down the middle/leg stump.

Good/great batsmen use their front leg to get a stride in and get close to the pitch of the ball.

King is using hand/eye coordination, which fails.

Until he stats moving that front leg properly,

he is always a candidate for edging out.

I was very impressed to see how late he is playing most of the balls.

He still gets a brain-fart too regular.

King, keep working at your batting.

It will eventually work out for you.

I am a big fan.
