ICC Champions Trophy 2013: Australia v/s NZ - The Quick Flicks

Dead Duck Wade

Matthew Wade was just about shaping up for a big score when he decided to walk across to a full delivery on middle from off-break bowler Nathan McCullum. Now, if it were a genuine athletic movement, I wouldn’t be so caustic. But his waltz looked like the waddling of a duck to me, and when he missed his flick, he was dead. Had he sat down to play the sweep and then missed, I’d have used the words sitting duck. Got to learn how to use those webbed feet better, Wade.
