Cricket is a game of fine margins and heartbreak, and
Jake Weatherald
just learned that the hard way. Hobart ke Ninja Stadium mein chal rahe is Day-Night clash mein drama ki koi kami nahi thi. Ek taraf century ka intezar aur doosri taraf injury substitutions ka khel,

Tasmania
struggle kar rahi hai aur
New South Wales
ne shikanja kas liya hai.
The Inner Story: Asli Maajra
The story of Day 3 was all about
Jake Weatherald
, who was looking set for a career-defining rearguard century. After a drought that lasted 11 long innings, he finally found his touch, smashing 13 boundaries and looking like the boss on the crease. But as they say, the 90s are a different beast altogether. 95 ke score par spinner
Joel Davies
ne unhe LBW trap kiya aur century ka sapna chaknachoor ho gaya.
Isse pehle ki match shuru hota,
New South Wales

Tasmania

Aidan O'Connor
for
Gabe Bell
.

The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Dekhiye boss, Jake Weatherald ne mehnat toh puri ki par jab kismat kharab ho toh 95 bhi pahad jaisa lagta hai. This innings was crucial for his Test spot, but the failure to convert starts into big hundreds is a red flag. Tasmania has messed up a great position. 209/2 se collapse hona unprofessionalism ki nishani hai. New South Wales are clearly the favorites now. Agar Edwards fit hote, toh match shayad ab tak khatam ho gaya hota. Tasmania needs a miracle on the final day to save this match.
