WTC Final: Marnus Explains Nap That Sent Cricket World Into A Spin

By IANS News June 11, 2023 • 09:52 AM View: 1071

AUS vs IND WTC Final: Top-ranked Test batter Marnus Labuschagne has revealed why he took a brief nap during Australia's second innings of the ICC World Test Championship Final when he dozed off even while teammates faced a bowling barrage at The Oval.

Labuschagne decided to sit back and take a nap as teammates David Warner and Usman Khawaja looked to build on Australia's lead, though the No.3 batter was rudely awoken and called out to the middle when Mohammed Siraj struck, reports ICC.
