When he gets forward and driving he's bloody good. Awesome to see him back... although interesting that the Katman at the other end is letting everyone know he's still aroundThe Prince.
Remarkable that someone with the footwork he employs can on drive so well from quicks. Shows what happens when blokes hit form... Those glaring frailties seem to disappear. He looks so solid with his footwork so far (though I didn't see the early stages tbf).
Top innings though son. Coyte fails to protect Rohrer here...

Terrific first day of the Shield final.
The outcome of the match dependent on how quickly Tasmania can roll through the rest of the NSW lower order in the morning. Hilfenhaus has been a real flop this summer (I remember many at the start of the summer predicting this to be his breakout year). A terrible Ashes followed by some very poor stuff for Tasmania. Constantly being out bowled by Butterworth, Maher and Faulkner.
Tasmania should fancy any target lower than 400. It won't be easy for NSW if Tasmania can build a partnership as the bowling is quite thin outside of O'Keefe and Copeland. NSW will miss Henriques purely for his ability to relieve one of the other bowlers. I think it is a big ask of Cummins or Coyte to carry much of the attack.

Made sense at the beginning of the day; every Shield game at Bellerive this season has been won by the team bowling first.

Mark Cameron

Josh Hazelwood
Moises Henriques

There might be a couple I've forgotten, too. Coyte is crap and I would've definitely considered playing Bills ahead of him but there's a good reason he's playing (this time).

This is another issue I touch on in my Ashes Aftermath - Australian Cricket Under the Microscope essay.
The incredible number of injuries, and the lack of cricket fitness among the troops.
