🔥The Forgotten Warriors: EP 10🔥
D Martyn: @damienmartyn.
Nov 1, 2003. Ind vs Aus. Mumbai - TVS Cup.
Aus 55-2 (6 Overs)
Many things had happened in the space of the 1st six overs in Wankhade. India dismissed @HaydosTweets for a golden duck, thanks to @ImZaheer and then..1⃣
got rid of dangerous looking @gilly381 who blistered to 41 off just 30 balls with the help of @harbhajan_singh. The red soil of wankhede was already showing its colour with the pitch already turning and bouncing. The match was on cliffhanger and in came the protagonist...2⃣
of today's show @damienmartyn and within no time he showed why he was batting at one of the most toughest position in ODIs (the no.4) for an Australian team that had so many special batters. So what was special about @damienmartyn and esp this innings i.e. in discussion?3⃣
So let me create the match experience with words here or to say let me try putting the scenarios for you all:
----
Scenario 1:
@harbhajan_singh was getting grip and bounce. Ind responded with a slip, silly point and forward shortleg..4⃣
Aus were looking to consolidate as they scored only 10 runs in the next 24 balls. Bhajji bowls one short and Martyn waits, then rolls his hand over the bowl and cuts it through point. Boundary.
Scenario 2:
@imAagarkar bowls one that beats @damienmartyn's outside edge..5⃣
