Bowling attack with only 2 seamers in struggling to take wickets on a flattish deck shocker.

Such a ridiculous workload for the seamers, and they deserved better figures tbh, they created chances pretty much all through the innings. Spinners did nothing, apart from Farhat lol.

Rogers shellacks Vettori over the grandstand to finish the match. For shame.
