Re: The theory behind very unfortunate run-out of Younis Khan
Sanjay Manjrekar started today's proceedings by discussing Yunus Khan's runout and Dean Jones demonstrated the basics of backing up at the non-strikers end. Iam not sure how many of you were able to see this part, but it was extremely helpful especially for those who are still very fresh behind the ears (yummy) sadly think too much of themselves (yucky), typical aaj kal kay bachay. Dean Jones demonstration took place on the pitch where he showed how batsman are supposed to be positioned when the bowler is running up and delivering the ball. His verdict was clealry against Afridi who failed to follow the basics. Later on Imran Khan and Nasser Hussein discussed the issue and agreed with Dean Jones that many professional batsmen do not pay much attention on taking quick singles and cricket is not all just hitting fours and sixes.
