'I just went out there and kept it simple' - Maharoof
When Carlton Baugh was trapped in front of the stumps by one of those typical Farveez Maharoof deliveries - a ball that just failed to come on a touch as the fingers had been dragged on it - Maharoof fell to the ground. It's not clear whether he was touching his forehead to the ground, as devout Muslims sometimes do, or whether he was kissing the turf, as devout cricketers often do, but any which way, the message was clear - thank you for this pitch, thank you for these wickets.
