Haunting dismissal
Hey guys,
Last game, one of the bowlers (an offspinner) was on a hattrick and it just so happened that I had to face the hattrick ball. As most of you would've guessed, he bowled a ball (Just full of good length which I thought I could've played) and in my indecisive mind of whether to 'charge' up to the pitch of the ball or take a long stride (which is what I did), I ended up playing inside the ball and getting bowled. My questions are, what would you have done (noting that this ball just clipped the top of off stump) and how would you get this dismissal out of your mind, as everytime I think about it, it seems to be the only ball I can't play :S. Cheers.
