Title: Mitch Johnson, the Destroyer
Post by: Mav on September 04, 2014, 10:58:33 am
Wow, Mitch Johnson is doing damage everywhere.  We know he hit a massive six which smashed the window on the commentary box recently.  Now, he's broken the arm of Ryan McLaren (SA allrounder).  Yes, it was a hairline fracture and McLaren kept batting, but, as the following article points out, McLaren is entitled to be scared of facing Mitch again given that 6 months ago Mitch hit him in the side of his helmet causing him to bleed from his ear.

Impressive.

Left hand bat facing a left arm quick, great bowling but where is this fudgewits forearm guard?

Deserves a broken arm for stupidity.

Agree...especially if you have been hit before and you know Johnson isnt going to be bowling half volleys at you.
I'd be wearing protectors for the protectors when its 150k heading my way....
