I think Wags gets that wicket because the batter is concerned about the threat of short pitched stuff, swings at a slow wide one with his feet rooted to the crease
Fair point... amazes me though how many times bowlers get wickets through some rubbish bowling.
Or hole out to the part timer. Must piss you right off

Yeah, through a batsman having a bit of a brain explosion.

Two piss poor shots by Latham & Young has put us under huge pressure... we know Conway & Nicholls have really good composure, hopefully they can build a big partnership.

Badly need these two to stand up.

I like Conway and Nicholls being positive.
We have to take SA on and not let them bowl to us.Yeah, we can't afford to let them pin us down... like the positive way they're playing as long as they show good shot selection.

Hopefully they can build a 100 partnership & keep going as long as possible.

I'm not saying Devon Conway is the third best NZ batsman in my lifetime, but only Crowe and Williamson have batted with less sense of imminent vulnerability as him.
He is being totally done over here but looks like he can get through it.
Fleming, McCullum and Taylor all at their peaks could be dominant but each obviously had their own glass jaws.

He has a technical fault with his front foot and falling over to off.
Rabada is working on that making it tough.
Conway is good enough to work through it. -
Reckon Conways need to cover off stump better & not keep fending outside off... needs to get in behind the ball & play straighter.

Conway is good enough to work through it.Flem had the same issue, as do many lefties, he just doesn't look snakebit by it.

Yes Fleming did,exactly same problem.
Needs to adjust his front foot placement and it’s sorted. -
Test cricket can be so intriguing, it's about battles within battles... if Conway & Nicholls can fight their way through this tough period they can prosper later on.
