“He Had So Much Time to Play the Quicks that I Remember Saying The Famous Gabba Test of 2021 That after the Ball was delivered he could take off his helmet, comb his hairs, comb his hairs, wear the halmet back to Swat the Ball Away Into The Crowd. The Australian Quick Attack of Starc, Cummins and HazleWood Were Really Steaming in And Bowling Quick, but Sharma was fighting them as IF he was Playing Spinners,
“As an indian at a time when the batters were treated with derision for the discomfort against fast bowling, it made one feel proud to see opposition quicks is all about power, sharma’s grace was a soothing balm to the eyes even as the ball went to the fartest corner of the stadium. “
