Stealing a victory

Until Day 4 afternoon, the game was in control of the Pommies. Then one man came. He hit. He hit ridiculously. He doesn’t really care what format of the game he is actually playing and he is aggressive no matter what the situation is. It is told by many cricket pundits that those traits are his strength and his weakness. A double-edged sword so to speak. That statement would be true if he is aggressive to the point of being reckless. Apparently he is able to control his aggression, which makes him even more perilous for his opponents. If you ask England today, they will tell you more about this guy who just robbed a victory, which was almost theirs to take. His team mate says “We are quite used to that. You kind of expect something which is not expected. When Viru is batting, it’s always entertaining and full of surprises”. The hope that this momentum will carry on for a long time is bright.
