The opening round-a-bout since the 2019 Ashes will finally reach it's conclusion:

- Bancroft
- Harris
- Burns
- Harris
- Bancroft

Both Harris & Bancroft are off for a season of county cricket at the end of the season in a few weeks.
Bancroft back to Durham who he played for in 2019, where I saw him make an exceptionally fine 109 V Leicestershire at Grace Road, and Harris who is going to Leicestershire.
If one of them does something special, they may be opening with Warner come Ashes Time.

We can only hope not.

Bad: Bancroft scoring runs. Did Vic forget the fine leg?

Good: Sutherland taking wickets.
On Bancroft, if anything I would say the opposite. Victoria, especially early on, spent too long bowling onto his pads and tended to give up plenty of easy ones and twos as a result

There's a chance they'll try shove Carey in as captain if Paine retires after the Ashes.

What's Inglis' keeping like? I have no faith in Carey's in Asia.

Will take a bit more to push Alex "Unlimited human potential" Carey off his perch.

I like Inglis's gumption though. Plus his backlift is looking much less offensive these days.

Carey has so much undeserved* backing from the management that it wouldn't surprise me at all if he gets a long run, even if there are potentially better and younger options available



*not saying that he isn't an international class player who deserves backing, just that the level to which he is talked up is excessive to what he actually brings to the table

Yeah I'd be gliding Inglis sooner rather than later at this point. Carey's world cup will probably be the pinnacle of his career and based on what I've seen he doesn't deserve a shot at tests. If Hartley can't win a call with a vastly superior record and being a vastly superior keeper, Carey shouldn't be given one just to throw SA some charity.

Thoughts? @GAS
Strange take, don't see how Hartley is relevent to the conversation at all


Anyway Inglis performing is definitely a good thing, while I rate Carey it is certainly to the benefit of Australian cricket to have another keeper making a strong case for themselves. Depth is exactly what is needed

Paris tonning up deserves a post. He's looked technically decent with the stick for a while but I never thought he'd pull that off. Reckon he probably won't again, too.

He did make 90-odd against Tas last season too. I could see it happening as long as he sticks around in the side for a few more years.
