Re “He was 100% in control of this shot, and did exactly what he set out to do.” I humbly submit the evidence your honour: the leg bail on the floor. 😉
What think ye of this interpretation? It bounced more than Siraj expected, hit higher up the bat than ideal and was allowed to hit the bat rather than being positively hit; hence it just dropping down and the spin on the ball being able to take it further forward. Topspin contributed to both the extra bounce and what happened after it got back down to ground level.

The Magic Bullet Theory was infamous for exploding JFK's brains. Looks like the Magic Ball Theory has clearly exploded J(F)K's brains here!
