Question to the coach:
2nd test 5th day: while Sohag was going to have an opportunity to have a hattrick, we saw fielders surrounding the batsman (#8). A slip, a leg slip, WK, silly point, silly mid-on. Basically crowding in the batsman's face. Very good strategy. I believe because of that Sohag got the hattrick.
My question is 1) why similar line of approach wasn't made in 1st innings to the 11th batsman?
2) in future tests (the second one and beyond) would we see crowding the batsmen from 8 and above? Please explain why?
