Marnus Labuschagne came to the crease after Sam Konstas was back in the hut following his brutal innings with the bat. The right-hander looked settled right from the start as he hit the ball from the middle of the bat and ensured that he helped the Australia National Cricket Team carry forward the momentum.
While his stay at the crease was lauded by many, Marnus Labuschagne also had to deal with some blows throughout his innings. In what was a torrid time for him, the Australia National Cricket Team batter coped with two back-to-back blows on the box and fell on the ground in pain.
If this was not enough, on the very next ball, the same happened. Mohammed Siraj bowled a back of a length ball seaming inappreciably. Marnus Labuschagne played down the wrong line and was again hit on the box area.
