Ashes 2023: Watch as Ollie Robinson comes up with a tasteless send-off to Usman Khawaja

Ashes 2023: The Ashes 2023 has been a gripping contest right from the outset, with the pendulum swinging between England and Australia. As the first Test match unfolds, it is clear that either side stands a strong chance of upsetting the other in the upcoming sessions. Day 2, in particular, had its fair share of drama and intrigue.

Australia’s opener, Usman Khawaja, put in an outstanding performance, scoring a hard-fought 141 runs. His resilience at the crease held Australia steady despite the early setbacks. His marathon knock embodied the fighting spirit of the Australian team and kept them in the competition.

In an interesting turn of events, England’s captain Ben Stokes devised an unconventional ‘Bumbrella’ field to break Khawaja’s concentration. Trusting pacer Ollie Robinson with the ball, Stokes employed six fielders inside the circle on both sides of the wicket. This unique arrangement presented a visual challenge for Khawaja, with the intention of unsettling his rhythm at the crease.

The unusual setup also suggested the possibility of Robinson bowling a bouncer. However, in a clever twist, Robinson opted to bowl a yorker on the off-stump instead. Khawaja was taken by surprise, and as he stepped out and attempted an inside-out drive, he missed the line. This resulted in the toppling of his off-pole, thus bringing an end to his impressive innings.

What an absurd and sick send-off from Ollie Robinson to a guy who made a classy 141. Great ball, poor follow-up.#Ashes #ENGvAUS #ENGvsAUS pic.twitter.com/lIF0b6JkrU

In the aftermath of this crucial wicket, the match witnessed a heated moment. Robinson, pumped up by his success, gave Khawaja a rather crude send-off as the Australian batsman began his walk back to the pavilion. Robinson’s unfiltered outburst, “F* off, you fing pr**k,” directed at Khawaja, added another layer of intensity to the game.

In conclusion, Day 2 of the ongoing first Ashes 2023 Test was a rollercoaster ride of emotions, marked by brilliant performances and high-voltage drama. Khawaja’s fighting knock, Stokes’ innovative fielding strategy, and Robinson’s crucial wicket have set the stage for a thrilling contest in the sessions to come. As cricket fans across the globe eagerly wait for the match to resume, one thing is clear: the Ashes 2023 is living up to its reputation as one of cricket’s fiercest rivalries.
