Marnus Labuschagne clarifies sleeping controversy during WTC Final.

Australian cricketer Marnus Labuschagne was caught sleeping in the dressing room during the ICC World Test Championship Final. He has now revealed that he was just resting his eyes and trying to calm his nerves. Labuschagne quickly walked out to bat at No. 3 after being awakened by the crowd's noise when opener David Warner got dismissed. Despite being struck multiple times on the gloves, Labuschagne reached 41* at the close of play and helped Australia to a strong position ahead of day four.

Mohammed Siraj's Fiery Performance in WTC Final Draws Praise from Ricky Ponting.

Mohammed Siraj, the Indian fast bowler, brought down Australian batter Marnus Labuschagne on his knees with his sheer pace during the World Test Championship final at The Oval in London. Siraj picked up a four-wicket haul in the first innings and continued to bang fast ones, hitting Labuschagne on his finger and then striking him high on the body around the thigh region, forcing him down onto the pitch. Despite a rearguard 109-run stand by Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur, Australia still managed to take a massive 173-run lead on the third day of the WTC final.
