David Warner’s six on a delivery that bounced twice in the semi-final has been termed unsportsmanlike, but Australia coach Justin Langer on Friday called the shot
“unbelievable.”
Warner hit 49 to set up Australia’s five-wicket victory over Pakistan here on Thursday to book a title clash with New Zealand. But his 30-ball knock had two interesting moments including when he jumped out of his crease sideways to smash Mohammad Hafeez for a six over deep mid-wicket after the ball had slipped from the bowlers hand and connected with the bat on a double bounce. Langer said he was impressed by Warner’s instinct to make a shot out of the ball that would have surprised any batsman. “Oh my gosh! It’s one of the best things I have ever seen in the game of cricket. I don’t think anyone would have the instincts to do that,” Langer told reporters.
