Marnus Labuschagne’s Unreliable Precognition
Grade: C-

India’s prospects of completing a world record fourth innings run chase were brought predictably undone by Scott Boland, a great Australian who cares about what time we all get to go to bed.

In fact, so predictable was Boland’s breakthrough that Marnus Labuschagne heard Virat Kohli’s edge to a diving Steve Smith at slip two balls before it happened. Amazing. But not as amazing as him somehow being able to convince Pat Cummins to review it. Come on, Pat. You know we never listen to Marnus. His precognition is all over the place.
