Watch: In a perky initiative, Australia spinner Ashton Agar fought a shoulder injury to bat one-handed in Western Australia’s 2nd innings versus Victoria in the Sheffield Shield today (November 18).
With his side at 310-9, Agar appeared to bat at No.11. He was having a hard time to hold the bat with his lower hand as a result of an Acromioclavicular (A/C) Joint injury to his left shoulder. Despite the limited motions, Agar, in a lion-hearted display screen of grit, included 15 even more go to the total amount with centurion Joel Curtis (119 *).
He took 2 impacts on his hips, played an onward support to Todd Murphy and also eluded out of the means of a baby bouncer. Agar was ultimately bowled by a complete shipment from rapid bowler Sam Elliot (4-47) as he battled to obtain his bat down on time, going back to the structure without racking up off 5 distributions.
Victoria were established a target of 120. Off- spinner Corey Rocchiccioli decreased the chasing group to 19-2 to offer WA a slim opportunity. However, Marcus Harris (56 *) and captain Peter Handscomb (56 *) assassinated the total amount in 23.2 overs without more missteps.
