My first memoryhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧠" title="Gehirn" aria-label="Emoji: Gehirn">of K Roach was watching him bowl a searing yorker which broke Sibanda’s bat in halfhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💔" title="Gebrochenes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Gebrochenes Herz"> and still went on to hit the off stumphttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🎯" title="Volltreffer" aria-label="Emoji: Volltreffer">. Such was the amount of pacehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚀" title="Rakete" aria-label="Emoji: Rakete"> & excitementhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤪" title="Zany face" aria-label="Emoji: Zany face">he was able to generate consistently with his skiddy action.

In his 1st season in int& #39;l cricket he troubled the best of the best with his pacehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚀" title="Rakete" aria-label="Emoji: Rakete">. He made Ponting spend his bdayhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🎂" title="Geburtstagskuchen" aria-label="Emoji: Geburtstagskuchen">night in a hyperbaric chamberhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🏥" title="Krankenhaus" aria-label="Emoji: Krankenhaus"> & also hit Smith and Kallis on the helmethttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🪖" title="Military helmet" aria-label="Emoji: Military helmet"> within a span of 4 overs. An IPL contract & a WC hattrickhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🎩" title="Zylinder" aria-label="Emoji: Zylinder">followed too.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚡️" title="Hochspannungszeichen" aria-label="Emoji: Hochspannungszeichen">The Breakdownhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚡️" title="Hochspannungszeichen" aria-label="Emoji: Hochspannungszeichen">
After a promising start to his career, injurieshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤕" title="Gesicht mit Kopfbandage" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Kopfbandage">started to peg him back. The car crashhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚗" title="Auto" aria-label="Emoji: Auto"> incident at Barbados affected him a lot mentally. He managed s meagre 9 wickets from the next 8 tests in 2015 & was subsequently dropped. Roach was at an all time lowhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😫" title="Müdes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Müdes Gesicht">

With the help of his childhoodhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👶" title="Baby" aria-label="Emoji: Baby">coach P Vaughn, Roach started to get back on his feet. They primarily worked on his fitnesshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🏋️‍♂️" title="Man lifting weights" aria-label="Emoji: Man lifting weights">to get him into a good frame of mind. Once that was accomplished, they moved on to make some technical changeshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💯" title="Hundert Punkte Symbol" aria-label="Emoji: Hundert Punkte Symbol"> & most importantly his approach to bowling

After analysing his bowling clipshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📽️" title="Filmprojektor" aria-label="Emoji: Filmprojektor">from 2015 they found that Roach tended to fall away in his bowling action making his wrist position go awry compromising on both pacehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚀" title="Rakete" aria-label="Emoji: Rakete">and movementhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🌈" title="Regenbogen" aria-label="Emoji: Regenbogen">. Also he leapthttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🐎" title="Pferd" aria-label="Emoji: Pferd">a little more in his jump before the pre delivery stride.

We can infer from the 1st pichttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🖼️" title="Bilderrahmen mit Bild" aria-label="Emoji: Bilderrahmen mit Bild">how his head, body & wrist are off balancehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚖️" title="Waage" aria-label="Emoji: Waage">compared to the 2nd pic from 2019. This change enabled proper transfer of energy & helped him with his controlhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🎛️" title="Drehknöpfe" aria-label="Emoji: Drehknöpfe">& movement. He also cuthttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✂️" title="Schere" aria-label="Emoji: Schere">down his pace and started to rely more on control & subtle skills.

Vaughn fed a lot of storieshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📔" title="Notizbuch mit verziertem Umschlag" aria-label="Emoji: Notizbuch mit verziertem Umschlag">to Roach about how M Marshall used to decimate the opposition with his craft more than his pacehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚀" title="Rakete" aria-label="Emoji: Rakete">. Inspired by these stories, Roach adopted the old but effective method of making the batsman playhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🏏" title="Cricketschläger und Ball" aria-label="Emoji: Cricketschläger und Ball">. This approach helped him to be more consistent.

In 2017, Roach was recalledhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤙🏿" title="„Ruf mich an!” (dunkler Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: „Ruf mich an!” (dunkler Hautton)">to the side after an impactful domestic https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="4⃣" title="Tastenkappe Ziffer 4" aria-label="Emoji: Tastenkappe Ziffer 4">day competition. In his comeback series againsthttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿" title="Flagge von England" aria-label="Emoji: Flagge von England">, he got into the Lord& #39;s honours board & got a 4fer in a memorable Leeds winhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🏆" title="Trophäe" aria-label="Emoji: Trophäe">. He then became a potent forcehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Feuer" aria-label="Emoji: Feuer">in home conditions with (cont)
