At Lords: Man of the Match to a Cricket Ball … Good Lord!@!@! – By Dr Michael Roberts

My Man of the Match over the years has often been a Man. Sometimes a bowler, batsman or fielder. Also perhaps an umpire or even a third umpire. Possible even a selector, coach or psychologist.
From that moment batting became a breeze. The ball wouldn’t move at all and might as well have been a lump of soap. Even Jimmy Anderson could have made a hundred. To Joe Root it became a picnic. He cut, pulled dabbed and drove as he pleased. Even Foakes started batting like Gavaskar. For New Zealand it was MATCH OVER!
See you at Trent Bridge !
