Agreed.It doesn't seem like they even tried to find anyone else, and he is part of the reason the team is so aged.
No love for a silly cow corner?Short cover is my favourite position. So rarely used in Tests, or any cricket, and always seems to either get wickets and/or get in the batsman's head. Not to mention stopping a lot of singles.
Yeah I don't have much faith in anyone else steering us to victory with no Mitchell in the side, his wicket is crucial to which way this test will go.All depends on Kane, has to get a hundred and lead us to victory. If he goes anytime shortly, we're probably 170 all out is my prediction.
Of course your majesty, you are always crucial to steady the shipYeah I don't have much faith in anyone else steering us to victory with no Mitchell in the side, his wicket is crucial to which way this test will go.
His hundred vs SL in the second test in 2019 is probably his career best performance imo. NZ 1-0 down in the series, tricky wicket, KW and Ross both dismissed cheaply. Went on to play a beautiful counter attacking innings that set up a victory in the closing stages of day 5. At the time I'd hoped it would be a watershed moment in his career. Sadly not.Yeah, I'm off Latham now. There was a time where I was a fervent supporter of him, but you just cannot expect him to score big runs at the right time against the best opposition.
Does he have a 'magnum opus' or a particular innings of huge importance/class to highlight his career? I don't know if he does. Yes he has tons, but were any of them particularly note-worthy against high quality opposition or in crunch moments?
