What Was The Brumbrella Field Set For Usman Khwaja? Know Here

The Ben Stokes era added to the modern cricket language just before midday on the third day of the rain-interrupted match. A new term was created after Bazball, Bazbait, and Nighthawk: Brumbrella. It can be used to describe the ludicrous pitch Ollie Robinson and Ben Stokes set to terminate Usman Khawaja’s 321-ball resistance, which was originally intended to denote a big pitch cover to protect the ground. However, this Brumbrella field set for Usman Khwaja has astonished everyone.

Brumbrella field set for Usman Khwaja

Despite how odd the field seemed, it was justified by the methods. England managed to build a seven-run lead after Khawaja’s departure, but rainy spells slowed down their momentum, and they finished the day on 28 for 2 with a 35-run advantage.

Watch the Brumbrella field set for Khawaja here:

The Australian opener, much like he was on the second day, was an immovable force of defiance, dampening the swing and seam of James Anderson and Stuart Broad, taming the rage of Ollie Robinson, and stifling the sharp spin of Moeen Ali. He was gradually closing the door on England’s tenacity. None of the traditional patterns or tried-and-true techniques were successful, and neither seemed to be the old allies, swing and swing. Stokes started his attempt to dismantle the Test cricket field-setting handbook as if he needed an excuse to embrace the bizarre. He then created what may be deemed the most unusual field you would ever witness in a Test match.

The field for Cummins in the 110th over

For some time, the England captain has been adjusting the pitch. He and Broad planned to swarm the leg-side field for Cummins in the 110th over. There was a leg-gully, a fine leg, a deep square leg, a deep wide mid-on, and a straight leg. Before moving the fielder to the silly point and crouching down at the short leg, he installed a short leg as well. The intended bowling motion was short and into the body. An average body line speed?

Robinson for Khawaja

Robison was probing wide lines to both batsmen from the other end. With a gully and three fielders grouped in the cover, he started the 111th over with Khawaja. The middle fielder is closer to him than the other two players on his side. Khawaja stayed calm in his impenetrable bubble. Robinson, therefore, packed the on-side in his subsequent over, with four men forming a human chain.
