“It’s just really poor batting. I don’t care what anyone says – oh you play like this, you play like that – if you do your preparation and your research … if you do your preparation to come to Perth, one, you’ve got to take some time to get in, usually 25-30 balls to get in. Be patient, watch the ball,” Langer told Seven.
