Must say that I've never seen so many mishits and edges go for four or six. Boundaries look to be very short to me. Saw one six that went many rows back in the crowd and it was measured at 77m. That particular boundary must be less than 60m.
Also found myself constantly shouting at the TV to pitch the ball up. Why do fast bowlers (and MMarsh's case, medium pace) repeatedly bowl half pitchers at decent batsmen?
On the subject of poor shots going to or over the boundary, after a succession of edges over the keeper's head by McCullum, Smith put two fly slips in place - one was essentially a long stop. As soon as he did, our bowlers attacked leg stump. WTF. Do they not understand the very basics of the game?
