The ball to dismiss Rohit Sharma was as follows:
Length: 5.5m
Line: -0.33m (33cms to the off side of middle stump – somewhere on the 4th-5th stump line)
Release: -0.66m (66cms to the off side of the middle stump at the bowling crease)
Seam movement: -1.17 deg.
Swing: -0.56 deg.
It was the third innings ending jaffa he received in three innings since he came to Australia.
My database has 577 deliveries from right arm seam bowlers to right handed batters (batting in the top six batting positions in a Test match) on a 5-6m length, pitching 30-40cms to the off side of the middle stump, and seaming at least 1.0 deg. These deliveries produce 36/197. This is not a typo. Specialist bats are dismissed once every 16 balls to such deliveries, and average 5.5 runs per dismissal.
There’s nothing much any batter could have done against that ball. It was, for all intents and purposes, unplayable. The batter has to be lucky to survive it.
