Carberry's last test was almost a decade ago

So many to choose from. The wheel keeps turning.
Duckett surely can't carry on averaging 45ish with his approach but he is by far the best opener introduced since Strauss/Cook was split up a decade plus ago.

I think finding English openers who suit English conditions has proven too hard ever since Strauss retired.
The new plan is to try and get English conditions to suit our openers.

Sibley was a leaver. As opposed to being a batsman.

Burns wasn't that terrible tbh. Didnt he manage two tons in the 2019 ashes somehow.

Loved that bloke, had a lot of respect for him. Faced some of the most hostile fast bowling seen in decades out here and was by no means disgraced. Always had a dig
Yeah was saying he left the ball now and again. Not terrible was about his limit though.

Most of them scored by edging in the air between the slips and gully. Or at least it felt like that.

Most of those shots were intended to go to the leg slide too

Whatever it takes!!!
Interesting state of the game. Steve Smith WAC. I hate how good he is. But that was an excellent innings, perhaps his best since covid IMO.
I guess Australia will be slightly disappointed with 416 after yesterday's 2nd session but its also seems about 150 above par for the conditions as they existed yesterday. England ruing not playing Woakes over the racist sledger IMO.
And no, not our @sledger .
