**Official** 5th Test at Sydney, 3-7 Jan 2025

These Aussies do bowl some great lines and length at home.

Do we think that you have to be able to leave on length to succeed down under? I ask because it seems to be more of a forgotten art in the modern era and the ODI transferable skills that have appeared in the Test arena.

Yet on the other hand, we’ve seen Pant and Konstas with **some** counter attack success against the top class bowlers, so there’s always a balance to be found.

Always a fascinating battle - that’s why we love it I guess!
