“Perfection of batting to be very honest. He hasn't put a foot wrong and even with Jofra Archer coming back into the side and being an opener, facing him with the new ball, it seemed like he had a lot more ability in spare to handle this kind of an attack. He hasn't put a foot wrong and that's been the hallmark of his performances this series.”
