Victorian seamer Scott Boland has knocked over his bunny yet again, dismissing New South Wales opener Sam Konstas for a sixth time in the Sheffield Shield on day two at the SCG.
The 20-year-old, dropped from Australia’s Test side last week, was bowled through the gate for 12 after leaving a gap between bat and pad, with his susceptiblility to inswinging deliveries still a glaring flaw. He didn’t manage a boundary during his 59-ball stay at the crease.
The Blues were 3-48 after 24 overs, with captain Steve Smith unbeaten in the middle.
Earlier, the Victorians were bowled out for 382 after NSW spinner Nathan Lyon cleaned up the tail, finishing with 4-82 from 29.1 overs.
