I feel like Burns didnt even want to be out there

It was a fine ball. Surprised he was good enough to edge it tbh

Really think Wade could make life a bit easier for himself by slightly opening his stance. He’s closed off around leg stump which makes it hard for him to drop and go on the on side.

Everyone could do with opening their stance, other than the ones who already use an open stance. It's miles better in every way, and in 50 years people will regard the classic side-on stance with the sort of bemused condescension with which we regard that weirdly effete, limp-wristed way pre-war batsmen take guard in old photos.

All these quick singles must be driving OS crazy

They picked him when he's totally out of form, of course he's not going to look like a test match bat.

my biases are 100% confirmed and no one will take this from me

 

[mr_mister]

[Spikey]

All meaningless and worth little.

Kerry O'Keeffe suggesting Whiteman can open for Australia. Why not bruh, why not.

 

[Burgey]

What a ****ing difference it makes when you rotate the strike

The bloke in this side with the technique best suited to opening currently keeps wicket and bats seven

It's frightening the infinity of which Tim Paine is capable of.

 

[Burner]

Umesh is so unpredictable. I still remember that third innings bowling efforts in India to set a test. Was crazy good that day. Looks like that Umesh has turned up today.
