Rant was on 28 with India 5-191 in response to Australia’s 474 when he played the shot off Scott Boland despite fielders at fine leg and deep third man. “That’s unacceptable,” Waugh said on Fox Cricket. “I know he’s a very aggressive player and a player that is a bit out of the box and unpredictable but you’ve got to read the game situation and read the field.
“There were two men back for that exact shot so the percentages are not in your favour, unless you hit it for six you’re going to be caught somewhere in the deep. “It’s just too hard of a shot and too risky of a shot to play with any degree of confidence and I’d be pulling him into line saying you didn’t need to do that. “If you’re going to be attacking, run at the bowler and hit him over mid-off, I’d much rather that shot than that shot.
