But now. How different the story. At the critical moment he had failed. Out to a stupid ball that bumped and chipped off the edge of his bat. It should have gone for a four hit-and with last season's bat.
Week ago (at the nets in fact) Jones had told himself that his bat was not what it was and now he cursed himself (alas too late) that he had not got a new one.
